Belfry Hall

Bio
Belfry Hall is a fictional castle-like mansion in Gilligan's dream where he believes he is a vampire. Located in 1895 Transylvania, it's a four to five story edifice with towers, garret windows and a pitched roof. The interior is old, drafty and cobwebby with secret passages and squeaky doors. Gilligan and Ginger have the master bedroom which has a fireplace and a shallow arched closet Gilligan confuses as an alcove. In the dream, Gilligan is a vampire dressed in Dracula-type attire with a cape. Ginger is his pale-faced bride in a white funeral dress and Mary Ann is the ugly old lady who works as their maid and housekeeper. When the Howells arrive looking for lodging for the night, Ginger puts them up for the night in the master bedroom just ahead of the detectives, Inspector Sherlock and Colonel Watney, who arrive from England to investigate the vampire-like attacks in the area. They're busy looking for evidence in the front foyer area when the Howells are attacked, later rushing up to the master bedroom and discovering Gilligan attacking the Howells. The Colonel and the Inspector soon fight Gilligan and knock out the vampire as Gilligan wakes up from his dream.

Trivia

 * Belfry Hall is actually a redressed version of Dr. Boris Balinkoff's castle from The Friendly Physician; his dungeon in the same episode is reused as Cinderella's castle in Lovey's Secret Admirer.
