Okay, I recently watched Psycho and noticed something that I thought was interesting. I borrowed the DVD from my college library and checked it out.
The newel post from the staircase in "Psycho" was later used in the interior set of "The Munsters". Obviously Universal had at least 2 of them, seeing that there are two in "The Munsters". Below is a link to a photo from Psycho:

Notice the detail in the top of the post, below the statue. I do not have a good enough shot of the post from "The Munsters".
