Don't Forget To Vote!

I know the presidential election is pretty scary, but this isn't about that that. :)


Please vote in my poll for your favorite Frankenstein's Monster. You'll find the poll in the right hand sidebar. Unfortunately I don't think you can vote from a cell phone. You'll have to use a PC.

Right now Boris Karloff is the runaway winner! I should have expected this. He is the iconic monster. I probably should have excluded him from the vote.

Please vote and tell all of your friends to vote, also!

POLL: Who's Your Favorite Frankenstein's Monster?

There have been many interpretations of the Frankenstein's Monster. It would be a very long poll if I tried to list them all. So, I picked 10 of my favorites. Which one is your favorite?

Pick your favorite in the sidebar to the right. I don't believe the sidebar shows up on cell phones, so you'll have to use a home computer or laptop. Poll ends October 31, 2016.
