Mr. Wright

Mr. Wright is a character in the thirty-fifth book in the Goosebumps series, A Shocker on Shock Street and it's Television adaptation.

History
Mr. Wright is a famous theme park developer. Known for his outstanding special effects and robotics. He is tasked by the makers of the Shock Street film series to develop a tramcar ride for Shocker Studios. He has his daughter Erin Wright and her friend Marty, two big fans of the film series, to test it out for them. Erin is excited and asks if her mom will be coming with them to the studios. This leaves Mr. Wright confused, but he thinks nothing of it for now. He brings the kids to the tramcar ride that will take them all over the studio to the many different attractions based on the Shock Street films. As the kids go on their ride however, more dangerous things occur, as the attractions seem to be alive and dangerous. From giant mantises, to zombies, to Wolf Boy and Wolf Girl attacking the kids.

The two make it onto Shock Street itself and find a film being made. They ask the director, Mr. Denver, how to find Mr. Wright, and he mentions that they should go through Shockro's House of Shocks. Marty runs to the house just as Erin spots a wire sticking out of the back of Mr. Denver. Before she can warn Marty, he ends up getting electrocuted. Dr. Wright shows up, and Erin panics. Then she suddenly doesn't recognize him, before shutting down entirely. Mr. Wright talks to an assistant about how the A.I. on the two robot children he used to test the ride must have been faulty. He grabs Erin and Marty and takes them back to his workshop to be repaired. In the television adaptation, the Erin and Marty robots come back to life and get revenge.

Personality
Mr. Wright has a very fun and enthusiastic personality, particularly when interacting with the Erin and Marty robots. Whether this warm demeanor is the reason for Erin's memories of a mother is uncertain.

Appearance
Mr. Wright is tall and thin, with thinning blond hair. He has skin that turns red easily, giving him pink cheeks when he talks, as well as brown eyes. Erin even makes mention that she looks nothing like her father.
