Monster Fest 2015: Butch Patrick The Munster we Love

Sonja- The Squeamer-Hammer has a very special guest on the phone line: Butch Patrick AKA Eddie Munster from the 1960s TV show……..The Munsters!

‘Although Butch Patrick has appeared in numerous films and TV series over the years, he will be best known to Monster Fest audiences as the child werewolf, Eddie Munster from the iconic 60’s TV series, THE MUNSTER’s.

Butch started his acting career in the early 60s appearing in episodes of hugely popular TV series’ such as Bonanza, My Favorite Martian, Rawhide and The Real McCoy’s, until landing the role of Eddie Munster at the age of eight.

Butch appeared in seventy episodes of the series throughout its two season existence. Despite having such a short TV life THE MUNSTER’S has etched its way into the pop psyche and over the years has developed a massive cult following across the globe, particularly with horror buffs who have all but deified TV’s kookiest family.

Butch will be at Monster Fest to present ‘I Was a Pre-Teen Werewolf’ and the rarely see Munsters movie MUNSTER GO HOME. Butch will also present the ‘Munsterapalooza event on the Lido rooftop.’

Thanks to Monster Pictures and Butch Patrick for the interview.
