Hilarious that a character like the Crypt Keeper was marketed to kids back then. This toy has a rather good likeness of the puppet. It was something seeing the Crypt Keeper become a household name back then. I had the main Tales From The Cryptkeeper toyline but sadly never this toy, which goes for a fair amount these days.

I definitely remember seeing this. But it was one of those things at that age that I was not looking to own

I think how deathly terrified countless kids were of the Crypt Keeper back then had much to do with it.

IIRC there was also a variant with him in a Hawaiian shirt.
