He seems to enjoy jokes of all kinds, and frequently makes bad puns about the book he is reading. He starts and ends each episode with a hearty bout of laughter, and refers to the viewers as "my children".

According to Lewis, he currently has no plans for including Moarte into AT4W so far. He has said he might, but it might be difficult to do. He also said that Longbox Of The Damned will be continued next year. Moarte is based, physically, on Lon Chaney's character from the lost film London After Midnight. His voice is a curious mix of stereotypical Eastern European vampire and Marik Ishtar's father from Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series.

Lewis saw the post and said he was seriously considering making this Moarte's official origin story.
