Introduction
The first version of the family appear in the episode "Fred and Barney Meet the Frankenstones" of The New Fred and Barney Show. They feature as the managers of a condorstonium development that the boys consider moving their families into. This Frankenstone family consists of:
- Frank Frankenstone, the Frankenstein-style father
- Hidea Frankenstone, his wife
- Atrocia Frankenstone, their giggly teen daughter
- "Little Freaky" Frankenstone, chip-off-the-ole-block.
Frank's voice is patterned after Boris Karloff by voice actor John Stephenson, and Hidea has a pseudo-Transylvanian accent.
