Love Song for a VampireMilton Bradley was not your typical vampire. First, there was his name. Milton Bradley? The moniker didn’t exactly conjure up images of sparkling fangs, rivers of gore, batwings, unspeakable deeds done in shadows. No, the name conjured up a whole panoply of games like Boggle, Yahtzee, and Scrabble. Milton’s only consolation was that he pre-dated the game company by about a hundred years…so he could always claim he was the original.
Next on the list came Milton’s looks. No, he was no handsome Anne Rice hero, full of angst and forbidden sexuality…the embodiment of carnal desire, someone to be played in the movies by a Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt. No, if a movie were to be made of Milton’s life, the lead role would probably go to someone like Peter Ustinov or Dom DeLuise.
