Conway businessman Keller Johnson was at a pinball machine convention in Dallas when he came across a nostalgic figure from his youth – Butch Patrick, the child actor who played werewolf Eddie Munster in the iconic television show “The Munsters” that aired from 1964 to 66.
The two struck up a quick friendship, and Johnson invited Patrick to Toad Suck Daze, an annual festival held in Conway. Patrick accepted the invite, and he liked the town so much that he moved there several years ago, he told Talk Business & Politics. Patrick travels frequently, and Arkansas’ relatively central location makes that part of his life easier.
“I like Conway. It has a small town feel with all the amenities of a city,” the 70-year-old said.
