Doppelganger Abbey ! ! !

Mummy at Mansfield Park

What a neat challenge!
T.Y., on July 18th, 2009 at 11:37 am Said:

Jane Eyre and Robo-Rochester?

A Tale of Two Cyclopes?

Tess of the Tarantula People?

Okay, the last one kinda sucks. Worth a shot. I’m currently reading P&P&Z and every minute is a crack up!

My bet is Northanger Dojo. I can also foresee a great movie version.

A few other thoughts are:

The Canterbury Tales of the Crypt Keeper
Catcher of the Corn (though you know how Salinger has been about Spin-offs lately, so I don’t think this one is likely)
Persuasion of the Viking Raiders

A Tale of Two Cities From The Crypt

Emma and Godzilla

I’m glad the winning entry will be drawn at random, rather than based on creativity – at least now I get a shot!

Amanda, on July 19th, 2009 at 9:26 am Said:

Mansfield Park and Mummies sounds fun, and while it’s not alliterative, I think a mashup of Persuasion with Vikings sounds fun, too.

What about Werewolves in Northanger Abbey?
Kellie, on July 19th, 2009 at 12:15 pm Said:

Emma and Mr.Grim Reaper, he has been around her so much she doesn’t know how much she really loves him!
Staci, on July 19th, 2009 at 1:02 pm Said:

Emma and Frankenstein

This could be fun to see what they develop next!
Joanne, on July 19th, 2009 at 3:15 pm Said:

I cannot wait to read S&S&SeaMonsters! It was really fun that we had to wait patiently to hear the new title – I love the surprise of it.

Here’s a few I’d like to see done:

Wuthering Bites (Heathcliff as a broody vamp would rock!)

Moby Dick vs Cthulhu (ulitimate high seas battle)

Little Women & The Vampires They Love
Kim S, on July 19th, 2009 at 6:46 pm Said:

Lady Susan the Succubus

Just like the word..succubus..
Lisa R., on July 20th, 2009 at 12:10 am Said:

How about, Mansfield Park & Mummies! (And, after I thought of it, I looked through the comments to see if someone had already come up with, and alas! Amanda and I think alike!)
Reid M., on July 20th, 2009 at 12:41 pm Said:

How about slumming it with some Ayn Rand?

“We the Living (Dead)”

A Steinbeck adaptation?

“Revenge of the 50ft Grapes of Wrath”

Or to milk Jane Austen some more . . .

“The Haunting at Northanger Abbey”

These are too fun.
Nicole, on July 20th, 2009 at 3:10 pm Said:

Northanger Abbey and the Nasty Newts?

Emma and Earwigs?
Jaclyn, on July 20th, 2009 at 3:23 pm Said:

I vote for Jane Eyre and Vampires…

So many fun possibilities
Lauren, on July 21st, 2009 at 1:13 pm Said:

Hmm…I’m not sure what would come next. I guess if we are sticking with Jane Austen…

Emma and the Purple People Eater. LOL

Sagan, on July 21st, 2009 at 5:14 pm Said:

“Love and friendship and the Republic”… Jane Austen and Plato together as one.

Casey, on July 22nd, 2009 at 5:07 pm Said:

I’d like to see “Persuasion and the Purple People-Eater.”
Amanda, on July 24th, 2009 at 10:35 am Said:

Oh this is too funny. Just reading people’s comments Hmmmm…I’d say:

Emma vs Dracula
Michael, on July 24th, 2009 at 12:01 pm Said:

How about “Moby Dick & Captain America”.
Or perhaps “Emma & Dracula: Spoiled & Thirsty”.
