CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS:

MAIL ORDER MONSTERS (A live stage show):

Howlin’ Howie (Male): A werewolf who needs to learn to howl and be scary. He starts as like a wimp (Ala cowardly lion) but is taught to harness his inner Howler (and Bronx attitude.)

Zac the Zombie (Male): Zac starts as a prim and proper zombie who is well dressed. He has a British accent and a limber physicality (Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz). As the show progresses he learns to grunt and walk more stiffly like a real zombie would.

Jester Funnybones (Male or Female): The jester is a magical and mischievous Halloween expert who is willing to help but only for a price. He/she is upbeat and funny as long as it serves his/her purpose.

Hubble Bubble (Female): She is a witch who only bakes cakes, no potions. She is dressed as a Susie Homemaker (June Cleaver type) but with the help of the audience has a drastic transformation in looks and attitude. By the end of the show she learns to cackle, brew nasty potions and become a stereotypical witch.
