Sorry it took so long. Here's the third installment in my spooky Sesame tale.

THE SESAME STREET HORROR SPECIAL: PART THREE
HERRY WEREWOLF

Herry and Grover are having a snack together. Being a werewolf, Herry eats rather messy. The doorbell rings, and Herry’s father goes to answer it. Count von Count is there.

Count: Greetings. I am the Count. They call me the…

Herry’s Dad: Yeah, yeah, I know, because you love to count things. But we have a big situation, here. Our son has become… a werewolf.

Count: (delighted) A WEREWOLF? Let me see!

Herry’s Dad: Now don’t do anything bad to him!

Count: (sees Herry) Ah, that’s one! One werewolf! Ah-ha-ha-ha! Wonderful! (thunder and lightning go off outside as a “1” appears on screen)

Herry: See, Dad? I told you he’d just count me.

Herry’s Dad: Now, son…

Count: Sorry about that. Now, I understand you are having trouble because you have gotten a werewolf’s curse, right?

Grover: That is what Herry has got!

Count: Right. I have a big book of spells that might be able to help. You can borrow it. (he gets out the book, which is extremely heavy, and drops it on the table with a bang) My next-door witch neighbor let me borrow it, and it will probably have something to help you. Well, I am off back to my castle!

Grover: Hey, are you going to turn into a bat and fly to your castle?

Count: What, are you crazy? I can’t turn into a bat!

Herry: Well, we saw a movie and there was this vampire that sucked blood and could turn into a bat and hated sunlight.

Count: Aha, I’m not like those vampires. I will go home… by cab!

Then the Count holds his cape up to his face in the Bela Lugosi Dracula-style pose, and exits the apartment. From the window, we can hear…

Count: (from outside) Taxi! (tires screech and we hear a cab door open) To the old castle outside of the city, please!

Taxi driver (Richard Hunt): (from outside) AAAH!!!

Grover: Well, Herry, are you tired yet?

Herry: No, Grover I am not. I guess it comes from being a werewolf.

Grover: Oh. I think I’ll take a little nap.

Grover goes to put on his pajamas. The doorbell rings again. Herry’s mom peers through the windows on the door to find Big Bird standing there.

Herry’s Mom: (gasps) It’s Big Bird! He can’t see Herry in this condition!

Grover, now in his pajamas, runs to the door.

Grover: I will get it! (answers the door) Sorry, Big Bird, Herry is not available!

Big Bird: Then why did I see Herry’s bike out in the driveway?

Grover: Uh, that is because HERRY, RUN!

Werewolf Herry jumps up in terror and begins to run. Big Bird is shocked at what he sees.

Big Bird: (gasps) A WOLF! Why is there a wolf in there?

Grover: But you see, Big Bird, Herry Monster is a werewolf! Whenever the moon is full, Herry becomes a wolf by night!

Big Bird: Oh… WAIT, HERRY! (runs in)

Herry: NO! I’ll just scare you!

Big Bird: Come on, Herry! Show me your problem!

Herry: (facing away from Big Bird) All right… but I warn you, it’s gonna really scare you!

Big Bird: Fine! I just want to help you.

Herry: All right… (swiftly turns to face Big Bird and reveal his wolfish features) THIS! You see…

Big Bird: I don’t get it… is that a new mask you got or something?

Herry: No. Didn’t Grover tell you? I’m a werewolf! I scare people!

Big Bird: Gee, that sounds awful. Is there a way to reverse that curse?

Herry’s Dad: There is, but it could take time.

…

The next morning, Herry and Grover wake up. It seems that Herry managed to fall asleep. Herry walks over to the mirror and discovers he is still a werewolf!

Herry: NOOOOO!!! IT CAN’T BE!!!

Grover: What is it? (gasps) Herry! You are still a werewolf!

Now Herry’s parents run in.

Herry’s Mom: Oh my poor baby! You’re still a werewolf, even during the day!

Herry: But… how can it be? It’s daytime, and the moon has gone down!

Herry’s Dad: I wouldn’t be so sure of that, son. (he points out the window; the sky is bright and blue and clear, and the moon can be seen in the sky)

Grover: I did not know that the moon could come out in the daytime!

Herry: What are we going to do?

Herry’s Mom: I don’t know… Grover and Big Bird already know… I think it’s time you told your friends.

Herry: (gulps) This is not going to be easy!
