Synopsis for "One Last Fling!"
The knife-throwing act in the little theatre in Hungary was extremely popular, but the couple was glad to be moving on to Paris the next day. When Harry woke up the next morning, he couldn't rouse Olga, who was very pale and he thought was dead. After making burial arrangements, he returned home and found Olga missing.....suddenly a bat flew in the window and changed into the missing woman before his eyes. That's when Harry discovered Olga was a vampire. She asked for protection, and Harry decided the act would change and head for the U.S. where they would play one-night stands. Even though people died mysteriously in every town they played in, they aroused no suspicion, but the whole thing began to get on Harry's nerves. He decides to lock her in their room and not let her kill again....but instead, Harry became her victim. Weakened to the point of not being able to do their act, he allowed her to leave the room....but she continued to feed on him, until one night, at the end of the knife-throwing act, he announced he was going to commit a murder, then threw a wooden stake at his wife's heart before collapsing in death on the stage!

At the local zoo, people crowd around the newest attraction: a pit with four crocodiles in it, and along comes Mr. Coogan, the zoo keeper and lover of these ferocious animals, to feed them their daily ration of meat. But when a young boy reminds him that these animals are MAN eaters and maybe they don't like being fed other types of meat, it makes him stop and think. That evening, he heads to town and kills someone and feeds them to his charges. Meanwhile, at the home of Norman Simms, family members discover him to be missing and they begin to backtrack his steps to locate him, without success. Back at the zoo, "Crazy" Coogan is over-seeing the cleaning of the crocodile pit when one of the men, Lou, discovers a ring on the floor and pockets it secretly. Later, in town, Lou stops in for a drink and sits down next to Norman Simm's relative, who has just learned others have disappeared in town mysteriously....then he sees Simm's ring on the finger of Lou, who tells him where he got it. Two and two are added together, and the angry men in the bar head for the zoo to confront Coogan. When Coogan sees them coming, he jumps into the crocodile pit, thinking these creatures will protect him.....instead, they devour him!
