DR LEGGS’ report on SPOOK

DR LEGGS’ report on SPOOK

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). This week I’m profiling the infamous “Spook” of Sunset Cove.

Name:	Spook
Age:	He doesn’t age but has been around for hundreds of years
Status:	The most famous ghost in Sunset Cove
Appearance:	Very spooky. Mostly dressed in white, he shivers and shakes and moans. Sometimes he takes on identities other than himself – if you look too far into his eyes you might see yourself!
Past History:	Spook has lived on Haunted Hill for hundreds of years. No one knows the real story of why he is there but legend has it that there was once a whole family of ghosts living in the mansion on the hill but as they made peace with their death they vanished… Only Spook is left.
Motives:	Spook is actually a very nice ghost. He is good friends with Fluffy Muffin as are most super natural things in Sunset Cove.
Influences:	Spook is strongly influenced by anyone that lives in the mansion. The house is sold fairly often as no one likes to live there for long – although they like the house and the magnificent views there’s something that’s not quite right about the whole place. But when a family is there Spook is like a child. He wails and moans all night and gets so excited at being able to do ghosty things.
Strengths:	Spook has an amazing vocal range. He can hit octaves you’ve never even heard of. His wailing and moaning is famous in Sunset County. But he’s such a modest ghost that he’d never admit he was great.
Weaknesses:	Shyness is Spook’s weakness. He doesn’t like to be seen very often and definitely likes to keep a low profile. He gets all embarassed and hides if anyone tries to talk to him. The only time he’s loud and scary is when he’s at his mansion and doing his ghosty thing.
Catchphrases:	“Whooooooooooooooooooooooooo”
Secrets:	Legend has it that Spook is actually the ghost of little Johnny Bignet. Johnny and his family lived in Sunset Cove in the 1810’s and mysteriously disappeared on the eve of Halloween
Rumours:	Rumours are that the mansion on the hill might be demolished to make way for some new apartments. Spook and Fluffy Muffin have a plan in place if it ever looks like this will happen. Spook will stop being nice to anyone that lives in the house and will take drastic moves to keep his home.

DR LEGGS’ report on Mr Fluffy Muffin

DR LEGGS’ report on Mr Fluffy Muffin

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). Each week I’m profiling different Sunset Covers – and this week is the the pyscho bunny of Sunset Cove, Mr Fluffy Muffin.

Name:	Mr Fluffy Muffin
Age:	Mr Fluffy Muffin is a young thing – probably in his teens.
Status:	A cute fluffy little rabbit with a split personality – best friend to Sophie
Appearance:	Fluffy Muffin is well known for his big floppy ears and soft white fur. He is always dressed well and has a little pink nose.
Past History:	Fluffy Muffin was found by Sophie in a bush at the local park. He didn’t look like a bunny when she found him – he was covered in mud and his fur was all motley. But Sophie took him home and cleaned him up and he always looks like new. Sophie’s poltergeist took a real liking to Mr Fluffy Muffin and often uses him to it’s advantage. It’s the poltergeist’s medium between it’s world and the real world.
Motives:	When Mr Fluffy Muffin is possessed by Sophie’s other friend, he does some strange things. Being a soft toy he doesn’t really have motives but is easily influenced.
Influences:	Totally influenced by Sophies poltergeist Mr Fluffy Muffin can be psycho. His head spins, his eyes glow and he pops up all over the place. But one of Fluffy Muffin’s great friends is the Easter Bunny. They try to spend as much time together as they can.
Strengths:	Fluffy Muffin is great at looking adorable. He is also a great comfort to Sophie and knows how to love her like she loves him.
Weaknesses:	Being possessed by a poltergeist can’t be easy and Mr Fluffy Muffin can’t resist. There is nothing Fluffy can do to stop it.
Catchphrases:	“mwahaaaahaaaaaaaaa” “nehhheeeeeehheeeeeee”
Secrets:	Fluffy Muffin has an addiction to chocolate. He’s not proud of it and has been hiding his secret for years. Why do you think he made friends with the Easter Bunny?
Rumours:	I haven’t heard any rumours about Mr Fluffy Muffin – I’ll have to keep my ears open.

DR LEGGS’ report on The Easter Bunny

DR LEGGS’ report on The Easter Bunny

Name:	The Easter Bunny
Age:	Rabbits don’t have the longest lifespan but this bunny is magic, he regenerates every 7 years or so.
Status:	A cute little rabbit and friend of Fluffy Muffin
Appearance:	The Easter Bunny is not often seen. But one guesses the Easter Bunny is a white or brown rabbit carrying a basket full of easter eggs and chocolate rabbits. He has a cute little pink nose and big floppy ears.
Past History:	The Easter Bunny has for many years now delievered Easter Eggs to children across the world. Easter is the celebration of spring or new life and so the symbol of eggs are used over Easter. Mr Fluffy Muffin is also known to be a good friend of The Easter Bunny and they love to catch up on old times.
Motives:	The Easter Bunny just wants to see happy faces and remind everyone that life is special.
Influences:	The Easter Bunny has been known to be influenced by Mr Fluffy Muffin. They are great friends and they both rub off on each other now and again. One year there were almost no Easter eggs delivered because Fluffy Muffin cast a spell on his friend Easter Bunny.
Strengths:	The Easter Bunny has very strong legs and bounces around the world for hours delievering eggs. Easter Bunny is also known to take part in the Tortoise and Hare marathon every summer and always comes in 1st place.
Weaknesses:	Easter Bunny is easily wooed by the female bunnies. They just love him and he can’t resist. There are thousands of young Easter Bunnies around…
Catchphrases:	“chocolate or marshmallow?” “Now where did I put my basket?”
Secrets:	The Easter Bunny’s biggest secret is where he lives. No one knows, not even Mr Fluffy Muffin.
Rumours:	Rumour has it that the Easter Bunny is wanting to there to be an Easter 2 or 3 times a year! That’s a lot of chocolate eggs and bunnies! Of course I can’t confirm anything…we’ll just have to see.

Christmas Interview with Santa Claus

Christmas Interview with Santa Claus

What does Christmas mean to you?
Lots and lots and lots of mince pies, milk and cookies – yum! Staying up way past my bedtime and breaking the world speed record as I zoom through the night sky delivering pressies to all the good girls and boys out there.

What do you do on Christmas day?
Sleep! Nah, I actually get to eat a nice big Christmas roast, cooked lovingly by my wife and the elves. Then I have a massage and a bubbly bath before I put on my cosiest jammies and hop into my beautifully fluffy and comfy bed and sleep for 3 months straight. It is during this time that I lose a lot of weight and when I wake up from my hibernation I have to eat solidly for 3 months to make up for lost time. Before long I can fill my clothes again and am recognisable as the jolly old elf Santa.

What’s the best thing that you ever got for Christmas?
I received a lovely pair of earmuffs from a little girl in Finland a few hundred years ago. I have worn them every single Christmas Eve since and they’re as warm and toasty as the day I first wore them.

How do you decide who’s naughty or nice?
That’s easy! I’m naturally psychic. All I have to do is to look at a kid and I know whether he’s worth a toy or not. There’s no fooling this old guy; you’d better believe it.

Just how do you get around the world in one night?
Are you stupid or something? I’m not exactly gonna give away my top ten secrets am I?

Um okay, do you prefer mince pies or cookies?
When you work as hard as I do you only care about one thing – food. I don’t care if it’s a piece of cake or a meatloaf sandwich; I’ll eat it just to give me a carb boost.

Who’s your favourite reindeer?
Most of them are pretty egotistical if the truth were told. Rudolf’s the worst. He doesn’t let the elves look him in the eye and people have to address him as R-lo. There’s not a single one of them deer’s that I’d take a bullet for. But they’re good at flying and that’s all that matters at the end of the day.

Where did you meet Mrs.Claus?
We were both recovering alcoholics and met at an AA convention. I had got a bit too used to the whisky and beer that some folks leave out for me at Christmas and now I know to stick to the milk. Mrs.C looked good in red, she’s a great cook and she loves the snow so I thought, hey, why not get hitched? We went to Las Vegas and the rest as they say is history.

How did you become Santa?
I was born in a cave and raised by wolves. An elf found me when he was searching for the cure to frostbite and took me in. By that time I had been spotted by skiers and got known as the Abominable Snowman.

I’ll admit that I was pretty hairy and had icicles hanging off my nose but I resent the fact that they called me abominable. Anyhoo, grew up, felt like I should put back some love into society and built an ice castle where all my extended elf family moved in to help me make toys. Things kind of developed along the way and the more kids started to believe in me the more my magic powers developed and now I can do the round the world thing and the chimney thing and the psychic thing. It’s all good.

Do you have a message for all your fans out there?
Keep it real guys. And don’t forget the milk okay?
