Plot
Baron Boris von Frankenstein (Boris Karloff) decides to retire as the head of the Worldwide Organization of Monsters, leaving the monster business to his nerdy nephew Felix Flankin (Allen Swift). Frankenstein plans to announce his decision at a convention of monsters at his island that includes Frankenstein's Monster and the creature's more intelligent mate (Phyllis Diller), Frankenstein's seductive laboratory assistant Francesca (Gale Garnett, playing the part of femme fatale), Count Dracula, the Werewolf, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Invisible Man, Quasimodo, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, the Mummy, It (a knock-off of King Kong), and many more. However when Felix proves to be an incompetent (and unsuitably kind-hearted) human, the monsters plot to eliminate him and gain control of Frankenstein's latest discovery....the secret of total destruction!

—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
“Those blessed structures, plot and rhyme—
why are they no help to me now
I want to make
something imagined, not recalled?”

“The westward march has stopped, upon the final plains of the Pacific; and now the plot thickens ... with the change, the pause, the settlement, our people draw into closer groups, stand face to face, to know each other and be known.”
