Frankie Stein wants to wish you all a happy Frankenstein Day! #frankenstein #frankensteinday

"There is love in me the likes of which you've never seen. There is rage in me the likes of which should never escape. If I am not satisfied in the one, I shall indulge the other..."

Happy birthday to Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, born 30th August, 1797. Portrait by Richard Rothwell, 1840.

#Caturday 🐈‍⬛ #FrankensteinDay 🧌

There once was a Cat named Stitches,
With fur patched in odd little niches.
He’d spark in the night,
Make doggies take flight,
And nap on his bed full of switches!
