Hello! Great to have ya here. I am Count Vladimir Dracula, better known as Grandpa Munster (even though, you know, Munster is my 'son-in law's name, not really mine). I live with my daughter Lily, her husband Herman, and my grandkids Marilyn and Eddie in our quaint California suburb. I can't complain too much about life; though I've gotta admit, it's not like it was in The Old Country. Back home, I was a terror! An absolute terror! I was feared by mortals. I had the blood of princes in my veins. Now, I have to live in this sickeningly sunny state, but at least I don't have any more guys trying to shove a stake into my chest. Not to mention, Lily and Herman let me have the entire basement to perform my experiments in, so, I try not to be too ungrateful. You may have also seen me in one of those electronic games for those Atari thingamajigs, and trust me, I had a great time working on that too!
Curious to learn more about the awesome, the frightening Dracula? Don't blame ya; everyone who meets me is just batty about me!
- Dark Is Not Evil: I may wear a lotta black, perform strange science experiments, and drink blood, but you have to admit I'm a pretty nice guy and a family man to the core!
- Deadpan Snarker: What can I say? I really bare my teeth!
- Doting Grandparent: As mention, I do really care a lot about Eddie and Marilyn. They're great kids! I just love to help them with their problems! Sure, sometimes my spells and experiments don't always go as planned, but it's the thought that counts, right?
- Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: Naturally!
- Improbably Cool Car: My iconic Dragula!
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Yes, I know I've got a real ornery side, and I trade barbs with my son-in-law pretty regularly; but I'm mad about my family, the lot of 'em, and I'd do anything for 'em. You know what they say, blood is thicker than water.
- Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Of course, Mockingbird Lane sure didn't depict me as the nicest guy around, even to my family!
- Large Ham: I do have a flair for drama. Would you expect anything less from the most famous vampire of all time?
- Mad Scientist: How I spend my time. Science is my greatest passion, and I love creating new contraptions and magic spells, sometimes to try to help my family out financially, or help Marilyn's dismal romantic life out.
- Obnoxious In-Laws: Oh, nonsense! Herman and I go head-to-head sometimes, but for the most part, I think he's a pretty swell guy. I didn't get in the way of him marrying my own dear daughter, did I? There's not even a hint of bad blood between us; we're good friends.
- Really 700 Years Old: I certainly look mighty good for my age; our neighbors think I'm just in my fifties or sixties!
- Telepathy: I do occasionally show I have psychic abilities, like when I noticed someone was about to knock on the door.
