| Is It True? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Oh no is it true? Is Bunnicula a vampire? Chester, the cat, and Harold, the dog, are being interviewed! R: Chester, why do you think Bunnicula is a vampire? C: I personally think Bunnicula is a vampire because he has fangs and a v shape in black on his back. He gets out at night and sucks the juice out of vegetables. H: Chester, why are you being so bossy? C: I�m smart and you're not. R: Harold, why do you think Bunnicula is so harmless? H: Because he is harmless and probably wouldn�t hurt a fly! R: Why do you think that? H: Because he�s so small and if Chester puts a steak on him and smashes his fist in his heart again Bunnicula will die! R: Chester, why do you want to destroy Bunnicula? C: I didn�t want to destroy him, I wanted to see if he was a vampire. R: Why were you so sad when Chester was kicked out of the house? H: Well, actually I was kind of happy because I got steak and he wouldn�t hurt Bunnicula any more, but I was also a little guilty. R: Why do you believe in the book, Mark of the Vampire? Is what it says true? C: It's true because all books I read are true. R: Mrs. Monroe, what do you have to say about this situation with your bunny, dog, and cat? MM: I have to say my bunny is not a vampire, and if Chester doesn't stop he'll be in trouble. I adore my dog, Harold. Isn't that right, Harold? Isn't that right, Harold? H: Woof! Woof!
