Publication dates for the two books were 1979 and 1980 (Library of Congress online catalog); Bunnicula April 1979 (ISFDB ). Deborah Howe died June 1978 (we say). I rewrote the lead sentences to respect these dates.

We said previously that D.H. died after Bunnicula was published. We cited the BCPL Biography of James Howe for which the library acknowledged permission of Simon & Schuster . It states in part:

One day in the mid-70's he dreamed up the character of a vampire rabbit named Bunnicula. He thinks all the movie versions of Dracula might have been the inspiration for Bunnicula, but it was his wife Deborah who suggested he write a children's book about him. Sadly, Deborah died of cancer shortly after Bunnicula was published.

If the dates are correct, this source is wrong here--and may be unusually sloppy about crucial points. I recovered it via Internet Archive and relegated it to External links. (James Howe visited the library in 2002.)
