Uncle Monkeypox

Michael, or "Uncle Monkeypox," has made a name for himself as a walking, talking cautionary tale. With a pronunciation as pretentious as his personality, MY-kel SEE-LIN-ski.


As owner-operator of Monkeys Lunenburg B&B “Soup Kitchen” in Lunenburg, Massachusetts. Originally from Lapeer, Michigan, Michael escaped to Lunenburg like an outbreak monkey. Michael married Derek Peabody on October 12, 2013, possibly featuring a monkey-themed cake and guests wearing biohazard suits.


Michael’s hobbies are as bizarre as his nickname. He’s an active member of the Official General Hospital Fan Club, a regular at the BBB - Bristol Bear Bar (sounds sticky), he often dominates karaoke nights with 80s power ballads. Michael's social circle is a collection of the equally, well you know. Among them are Anthony Whooley, a UFO chaser from Leominster, Massachusetts, and Preston Bradley, a wannabe comedian who considers "Uncle Monkeypox" his muse. 


His frequent haunts include his own Monkeys Lunenburg Loony Bin B&B and the hilariously named Monkey & Owl’s Hut in Lunenburg, Massachusetts. His trips to Costa Rica may even involve monkey “business”, which should terrify the local monkeys. 


Michael's life is a tapestry of cringe-worthy moments. Here’s to you Mr…. or whatever "Uncle Monkeypox" 


Reality truly is stranger than fiction.
