{Character Interview} Dr. Vincent Konrad of 'Monsterland'

We’re thrilled to be talking to Dr. Vincent Konrad from Michael Okon’s Monsterland.  It is a pleasure to have him with us today at Pimp That Character!

Thank you for your interview, Vincent.  How old are you and what do you do for a living?

It’s Doctor Vincent Konrad, thank you. I’m anywhere between fifty and eighty, but does that really matter? I have built seven theme parks on six continents all containing the world’s monsters. We have specifically rounded up werewolves, vampires and zombies.

Can you tell us about one of your most distinguishable features?

I’m extremely tall, some people say quite intimidating for a mad man, er, entrepreneur and philanthropist.

What would I love the most about you?

I created a theme park with real werewolves, vampires, and zombies as the main attractions.

What would I hate the most about you?

I created a theme park with real werewolves, vampires, and zombies as the main attractions.

Where do you go when you are angry?

Terrible, nefarious things that affect the entire planet.

What makes you laugh out loud?

A good battle between werewolves, vampires and zombies in my theme park.

What is your greatest fear?

Fear? No such thing when you’re running a theme park full of monsters.

What is your favorite weather?

Dark and rainy, how else would you have a monster story.

What is your most treasured possession?

My monsters. They are going to allow me powers that no one on earth could conceive.

Do you like to cook?  If so, what is your favorite thing to cook? 

I like to feed the werewolves to the zombies, if you consider that cooking.

If you knew you were going to die tomorrow, what would you do today?

Wouldn’t matter because I would just get re-animated. There is always a Plan B.

BOOK BLURB: 

Welcome to Monsterland—the scariest place on Earth.

The last couple years of high school have not been fun for Wyatt Baldwin. His parents divorce, then his dad mysteriously dies. He’s not exactly comfortable with his new stepfather, Carter White, either. An on-going debate with his best friends Howard Drucker and Melvin over which monster is superior has gotten stale. He’d much rather spend his days with beautiful and popular Jade. However, she’s dating the brash high-school quarterback Nolan, and Wyatt thinks he doesn’t stand a chance.

But everything changes when Wyatt and his friends are invited to attend the grand opening of Monsterland, a groundbreaking theme park where guests can rock out with vampires at Vampire Village, be chased by actual werewolves on the Werewolf River Run, and walk among the dead in Zombieville.

With real werewolves, vampires and zombies as the main attractions, what could possibly go wrong?
