Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry

Monsters by Andy Greiling.

Larry Kenney, voice actor of Count Chocula since 1978:

I auditioned for the role of Count Chocula around 1978. When I auditioned, they didn’t want a new voice for Count Chocula, they wanted to get as close to the voice that Jim Dukas was doing for the first eight years. Jim was a great guy, but he was retiring, and that’s why they got a new voice. They told me that they wanted to maintain the same sound that Jim had, but his Lugosi impression was a little more growly than mine ended up being. In an early spot, they even asked me to pull back on the Lugosi I was doing. They wanted Count Chocula to be a little more friendly.

During the 50th anniversary of the Monsters Cereals in August 2021, General Mills released MONSTER MASH cereal. It was created as a special limited-edition flavor to celebrate the 50th anniversary and this image along with a few original interviews with the characters were released in as marketing materials.
