Did you know

When the show was canceled in 1966, the producers gave Morticia's oval-backed wicker chair to Carolyn Jones as a memento. Jones kept it in her bedroom for the rest of her life.

The interior of the Addams house was inspired by the real-life Manhattan apartment of Charles Addams, which contained suits of armor, an antique crossbow collection, and other oddities.

Carolyn Jones and John Astin decided to give Gomez and Morticia "a grand romance" as an antidote to the virtually asexual parents then common in television shows.
