Uncle Deadly

Uncle Deadly is a blue, dragon-like monster wearing a cape also known as the Phantom of The Muppet Show. Although he made his first appearance in the Vincent Price of The Muppet Show, Uncle Deadly did not receive his proper introduction until the Twiggy episode. One by one, the Muppets tell Kermit that they have seen a phantom, but Kermit refuses to believe them until he sees Uncle Deadly with his own eyes. Once revealed, Uncle Deadly explains that he used to perform at the Muppet Theater, where he played Othello until he was killed... by the critics.
