The Michael Berry Show

Today's Michael Berry Show is sponsored by

Gateman Goodbury and Graves

Gateman Goodbury and Graves is a funeral home in Mockingbird Heights and occasionally

the company car which is a hers naturally can be seen picking up employees for work

one employee in particular likes to climb into the car via the back door

and ride to work as if he's a body being delivered to the funeral home

This fellow's co-workers sometimes remark on his heightened strengths

but otherwise never seemed to find his appearance and green color out of the ordinary

and this was way back in the day before diversity, equity and inclusion hit

This employee started at the funeral home as a boxboy building coffins in 1953 at the very

young age of 138 years old

His name is Herman Munster and he was created in 1815 at the University of Heidelberg

by Dr. Victor Frankenstein

Leaving Germany for Great Britain at a young age, Herman was adopted by the monsters of Monster Hall

a noble family living in Shroudshire, England

At some point along the way Herman moved to Transylvania where he met Lily Dracula

In 1865 Herman married Lily and eventually the couple along with Lily's father

A much older count Dracula that everyone just called Grandpa moved to America

where Herman joined the United States Army fighting in World War II

The monsters lived at 1313 Mockingbird Lane with their cousin Marilyn

and their werewolf-like son Eddie
