Hogenstein | Frankenstein-like Halloween Stories for Kids
Description
It’s alive! Deep in the Foreshadow, the ever-dark lands of Once Upon a Time, Hogenstein, the infamous warthog scientist, invented the potion, It’s Alive No. 5! Using his freaky formula, a lightning rod and a fierce thunderstorm, he and his loyal lab assistant, Lugo the bat, brought a super creature to life. Muahahaha! But wait…that’s not what’s so terrifying about this tale, because the scariest part is when the creature must go out into the world to face his fears alone.

PARENTS, TEACHERS AND HOMESCHOOLERS: This Halloween stories for kids episode is a reimagining of the classic, Frankenstein, where facing one’s fears is scarier than a spooky story. In our version, the creature goes out into the world on his own, tries things he has never tried before, and has the courage to never give up. He kept trying his best, even when the townspeople judged him before he had the chance to show them his big heart.
CREDITS: This episode has been a Jonincharacter production. Today’s story was written by Amy Thompson, edited, directed and produced by Molly Murphy. All characters were performed by Jonathan Cormur. Sound recording and production by Jermaine Hamilton at Pacific Grove Soundworks.
