I Vant to Bite Your Finger is a board game designed by Charles Phillips and Charlie Leicht published by Ideal Toys in collaboration with Hasbro in 1979, in which waking a vampire represented as a roughly foot tall standee on the game board obliged the player to place a finger in the vampire's mouth, where it would be bitten by "fangs" that were actually small, red felt-tip markers.
Details
I Vant to Bite Your Finger is suggested to be played with 2–4 players ages 6 and up. [1] A roll of the die determines how far a clock dial located on the vampire figure is turned; turning the dial may cause the vampire's cape to fly open. [1] If the cloak opens the player whose turn it is must insert a finger into the vampire's mouth while another player attempts to depress a plunger behind the vampire's head. If the plunger depresses, the player's finger is marked with two red dots from a twin-nibbed felt-tip marker located in the mouth, and that player must return to the start space. The clock dial mechanism is designed to open the cape, ostensibly unpredictably, once per revolution.
The gameboard mostly comprises 14 red circular spaces, a start space and an end space, representing a dirt track around a dark hillside castle and graveyard. The player tokens are white discs with silhouette cut-outs to represent one each of a spider, a rat, a snake, and a bat.
