So you wanna be Frakenstein’s Monster for Halloween?

Well, if you didn’t already know, Halloween is approaching quickly! After posting yesterday’s Frankenstein book review, I thought it would be fun to share some interesting takes on Frankestein’s monster costumes for Halloween, or whenever you’d like to wear them because costumes are awesome and we should rock them all year like toddlers.

Here are my favorites (and I mean favorites in the toddler way of “This is interesting”):

Bride of Frankenstein or just odd sexy Frankenstein’s monster?
You decide, either way, I’ve decided that it’s weird.

“Heavy” metal Frankenstein’s monster is a little more my pace.
I do find the face to be what I imagine the monster to look like from the book.

I find this female Rockabilly version of Frankenstein’s monster oddly endearing.

Book Review: Frankenstein

By Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Just in time for Halloween I read Mary Shelley’s landmark Frankenstein for an online book club.

I really enjoyed this book, but at shy of 200 pages, it still took me a long time to read. I believe my main problem was getting in the right frame of mind to absorb the language of the early 1800s.

I was very curious about the plot of this book. After all, I have seen Young Frankenstein! The story of how Victor Frankenstein created his monster and his eventual undoing was interesting.

This was a great Halloween read. It’s not scary, but very intriguing. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good, thrilling classic.
