Merry Monster is a Sesame Street monster who first appeared in Episode 2854, then became a recurring character from season 23 through season 26, making only minor appearances since.

Despite her small size and meek voice, Merry is known for being loud and sometimes obnoxious. Her roar is louder than that of Chicago the Lion.

Merry portrayed Grover's daughter in a 1991 edition of Monsterpiece Theater, "The Sun Also Rises." She also sang "That's the Letter O" with Queen Latifah and Prairie Dawn in season 24.

Notes
