I don't think Gross interviewed Marmorstein. I only seem to remember interviews with Art Wallace, Robert Costello, Ron Sproat, and Sam Hall.
And Barnabas wouldn't have appeared in Wallace's original bible because there was never any thoughts to make the show supernatural at the point the bible was written prior to the show even going into production. The storylines laid out in the bible are pure soap opera (particularly how Vicki was to go on trail for killing Laura, with Frank Garner as her defense attorney), but even before the show went supernatural things from the bible were changed (i.e. on the show Roger didn't meet a much deserved demise falling from Widows' Hill, and Bill Malloy was killed off on the show, whereas he was originally planned to be a continuing presence in Liz' life). About the last thing from the bible that was at least partly used on the show was the Liz/Jason blackmail - though Jason was named Walt Cummings in the bible.
