This mug features a vampire on the front with long claw-like fingers, sharp teeth, and bat wings on the back with the Biggs logo. The vampire is modeled and named after Nosferatu, from the 1922 German Expressionist horror film, directed by F. W. Murnau, and starring Max Schreck as the vampire Count Orlok. The film, shot in 1921 and released in 1922, was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897). Various names and other details were changed from the novel: for instance, "vampire" became "Nosferatu" and "Count Dracula" became "Count Orlok". Stoker's heirs sued over the adaptation, and a court ruling ordered that all copies of the film be destroyed. However, a few prints of Nosferatu survived, and the film came to be regarded as an influential masterpiece of cinema.
