Wonder if this is a relation to Victor Frankenstein...

When he gets sent to jail, we may be able to get his cellmate Bubba to confirm the schwanzstucker rumors.

I hope he gets a 2nd hamper in his cell for poo-poo undies.  I just like how the article reads, referring to him gratuitously as 'Frankenstein' a bunch of times (every time?) as opposed to the alleged perpetrator, defendant or the accused-----even just once.

I think they showed incredible restraint with this article.
I would have gone with a headline like:

Frankenstein Goes On Rampage!
Police and Locale Doctors Injured In Violent Assault


Also, note this about the town:

I agree that had one of US been responsible for the article, we would have gone nuts with it...


I am so disappointed in the underachieving inhabitants of Frankenstein, Missouri, that they have not done more commercially with the potential for living in a town called Frankenstein.  Not even a cafe?  A pizzeria?  Mortuary?

I know. Lord, look what the people of Metropolis have managed to do!

Thank you for the information OG, for a minute I thought this was another Forry myth. Also it reminds of a true story that happened in England about ten years ago, a man ran into a police station and insisted on being locked up for the night. When questioned he claimed to be changing to a wolf as the Moon rose, it took a fair number of police officers to  pin him down and they also claimed that he did turn bestial both in features and strength. He even rammed his head through a two inch thick heavy oak door like it was paper. The next day he was released and he was coherent and business like, he recalled how he was sharing a car with a woman the previous night and upon seeing the full Moon felt compelled to distance himself from her in case he did something to harm her so he drove to the police station. After that everything was a blank, werewolf or insane you decide.

Thanks for the story TVH. Might need to do some Googling on this

Looks like he would be related to the "Edison" Frankenstein with that hair.
