IMDb profile

Edward Wolfgang "Eddie" Munster, is a fictional character in the CBS sitcom The Munsters, played by Butch Patrick. The only child of Herman and Lily Munster, Eddie is a werewolf. The role was later played by Jason Marsden in The Munsters Today.

[edit] Description

Eddie is a typical all-American boy apart from being a werewolf and, in some episodes, showing some signs of being part vampire. Most noticeable is the fact that he sleeps in a coffin. He has a stuffed toy werewolf named Woof-Woof, which bears an uncanny resemblance to Lon Chaney, Jr.'s character, The Wolfman. He attends elementary school, and aside from his pointed ears, severe widow's peak, and Fauntleroy suit, he is a normal kid.

[edit] Production

In the original pilot episode, the part was played by Happy Derman, who played a more aggressively wolfish boy. Butch Patrick was cast in March 1964 and would appear in all other episodes to follow.
