Fire! Bad! Podcast! Good! This week, we enter #GHLSpookySeason2024 tackling all things Frankenstein. Starting with Mary Shelley’s groundbreaking novel that invented the science fiction genre through the Universal Monsters Movies to the campy sitcom, The Munsters. We discuss Victor Frankenstein’s lack of coping skills, whether or not he’s called “The Monster” or “The Creature”, and if the green skin is iconic or a mistake. Everyone knows who Frankenstein is – but how deep does your knowledge run? Whether you’ve been scared of the Creature your entire life or are a long time fan this episode is filled with jump scare, lightning, and Phil Hartman jokes!
