* At the end of Tanzsaal Alfred tries to scare the vampires off by running towards them, candle holder in hand, [[ScreamingWarrior screaming.]] This fails to impress to impress the Count entirely, who doesn't move one inch, while Alfred stops dead in his tracks. If played by Drew Sarich, the Count will then turn around to look at his son as if to say "Is that supposed to scare me?", who only shrugs in response. He then turns back to Alfred, throwing his hands in the air, and giving a little mock-scream before scaring Alfred off.

* A classic example of Professor Abronsius' NeverMyFault attitude: The Professor and Alfred are trying to sneak down to stake Chagall. Abronsius takes one step, the old floorboard groans under his weight, Abronsius hushes Alfred. He takes another step, again the floorboard groans and again he motions Alfred to be silent. When the floorboard groans ''again'' under the third step, Abronsius gives his assistant an exasperated look. Alfred meanwhile hasn't made a single move the entire time.
* Count von Krolock, of all people, gets one funny moment as well. The Count gets a bit caught up in the moment when singing about eternal sadness. He pauses, than turns around - to see Alfred and Professor Abronsius bored out of their minds and nearly asleep. Depending on the actor, the reaction to that varies. Sometimes the Count scares them with a "Boo!", sometimes he starts laughing ([[BreadEggsBreadedEggs and sometimes both]]) and sometimes he has completley forgotten about his visitors and looks entirely puzzled when he sees them.
* Jan Ammann is fond of adding his owns sense of humour when portraying the Count. In "Vor dem Schloss" he gives us this gem:
--> Count von Krolock: THE Professor Abronsius?
--> Professor Abronsius (flattered): You have heard about me?
--> Count von Krolock: I read your book "The Bat". BRILLIANT! [completeley [[DeadpanSnarker deadpan]] and bored] I was captivated.

* When Professor Abronsius and Alfred are in the Count's castle, the Professor stumbles upon a whole load of books. He then proceeds to sing a [[LongList song with lyrics that consist almost completely of authors]]. At first, Alfred wants to talk the professor out of it. Failing to do so, he leaves and the plot continues for quite some time with them apart. He finds Sarah, and they have a duet (Which is mostly about Sarah [[spoiler: not wanting to leave]]), and Alfred songs a solo number while returning to the professor. When they meet again, Alfred gets his song interrupted by the professor... who is STILL singing authors.
* In fact, half of Professor Abronsius' lines are hilarious. For example, during "Sie irren, Professor" (the reprise of "He, Ho, He"), he uses a proper mad professor threat: "You underestimate science, von Krolock! I will pickle you in alcohol and add you to my collection."

* Professor Abronsius is one of the funniest characters in the entire musical. Half of his lines, as well as his tendency to [[LargeHam ham things up]] make him utterly hilarious. Here are a few examples to prove it.
