Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein was published in 1818 and, over 200 years later, still remains a profound influence on modern culture. Frankenstein and the Fantastic, an outreach effort of the Northeast Alliance for the Study of the Fantastic and the Fantastic Areas (Fantasy & Science Fiction and Monsters & the Monstrous) of the Northeast Popular Culture/American Culture Association, is designed as a resource for celebrating the text and its legacy.
Celebrating in 2025: the 115th anniversary of Edison’s Frankenstein (1910), the 90th anniversary of Bride of Frankenstein (1935), the 80th anniversary of Dick Briefer’s Frankenstein for Prize Comics (1945-54) and the Frankenstein adaptation in Classic Comics #26 (December 1945), the 60th anniversary of Milton the Monster (1965–67), the 50th anniversary of the film version of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and the 10th anniversary of Graham Nolan and Chuck Dixon’s Joe Frankenstein.
