Vermicious Knids

First Appeared:
Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator

The Vermicious Knids are shape-shifting creatures from Vermes. All of their bodies are muscle The Knids travel all through the universe eating and destroying all that they find. They also eat alot.

In the Space Hotel, the Knids formed the letters to spell "scram" to get rid of Willy Wonka and company. According to Wonka, there were thousands of Knids in the Space Hotel.

Unfortunately, Knids are not heat-proof and don't have retro-rockets. If they enter the Earth's atmosphere, they will get scorched.

When the hotel crew arrived at the Space Hotel, two dozen people were gobbled up, as witnessed by astronaut Shuckworth.

In space, the Knids rammed a lot on the Commuter Capsule. But Willy Wonka and the crew saved the Commuter Capsule even though the Knids tried to hit the Glass Elevator. All of the Knids burned up when the Glass Elevator was zooming back to Earth.

Mr Salt, Veruca's father is in the peanut business. When her daughter said she wanted one of the Golden Tickets, Mr. Salt bought so many Wonka bars as much as he coulda and told the peanut workers to shell Wonka bars to find the Golden Ticket.

When the Golden Ticket wasn't found, Veruca would go kicking and screaming on the floor saying "Where's my Golden Ticket! I want my Golden Ticket!". But Veruca was happy when one of the peanut workers found a Golden Ticket.

Her parents gives her anything she wants just by screaming. For example, at the chocolate factory, she tells her father that she wants an Oompa Loompa, a boat and a squirrel

In the Nut Room inside the chocolate factory, Mr Wonka told Mr. Salt that Veruca can't have a squirrel because they are not for sale Verucas tried to get ahold of the squirrel, but she got pinned down by the squirrels and got tested to see if she is a bad nut. Verucas was a bad nut and got thrown down into the garbage chute, along with her parents.

Veruca Salt and her family were covered in garbage when they left the factory.

The Great Big Greedy Nincompoop: Augustus Gloop

First Appearance:
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl (1964)

Augustus Gloop was the first child to find the Golden Ticket to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. He is a  boy with enormous folds of fat over his body and a very fat face. According to Mrs. Gloop, eating is his hobby and all that he is interested in.

When the Golden Ticket was found, a parade was held in honor of him and children had a day off from school.

In the chocolate factory, Augustus Gloop was leaning over the chocolate river, drinking big greedy gulps. Mr. Wonka told him to stay away from the river as the chocolate must be untouched by human hands.
Despite the protests, Augustus still drank from the river.

Augustus fell into the chocolate river and was stuck in the pipe for a little while. But he got shot up through the pipe in which it leads to where Willy Wonka makes his strawberry-flavored candy-coated fudge.

When Augustus Gloop was leaving the factory with his family, he looked thin as a straw as a result of being sucked into the pipe. Mrs. Gloop feared that her son would be chocolate fudge.

Quotes:
"Augustus-flavored chocolate-coated Goop! No one would buy it! -- Mr. Wonka

"Enormous, isn't he?

"...What a repulsive boy" -- Grandma Georgina

Song from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl (1964).
