Frankenweenie

Sparky of Frankenweenie was suggested by my brother who, upon me first staring this, commented on the Instagram post “This is dumb”. My heart can never heal, but Sparky’s fatal car accident can, through being reanimated by lightning, which also serves as how he keeps going. Frankenweenie is the first undead not as a branch from the basic three. Frankenweenie cannot be seen as a true zombie as it lacks the animalistic urges, infection ability, or hunger for brains, he also is the first who isn’t made to harm or be used for evil, which makes me feel as though we need to add some new best undead titles… For now, we have Sparky’s rating.

Frankenweenie’s Sparky is actually just cute. He gets a 1 because he is slightly creepy with his parts falling off and the sewn-on skin, but besides that, he is pretty cute.

Sparky is actually incredibly dangerous. Being brought to life from a lightning bolt means 1 billion volts of electricity at an amperage of at least 5 thousand, which is extremely deadly, and we can see him use the electricity within him to turn hair white, and re-kill a giant undead rat. Even if he has only a quarter of the voltage and amperage, that is still hundreds of times more powerful then what you need to kill a human. The problem is how Sparky actually delivers these shocks, and that is done in a strictly defensive manner when enemies attack and touch the bolts on his neck. Because of this, Sparky is not 10/10 danger, only 7/10.

Transformation is also very low, and only receives a 2 instead of a 1 because of the small cloth stitched to Sparky’s back, and the bolts in his neck.

Finally the name. Sparky makes sense as he is charged by lightning and can use it to kill, but it is pretty lame. Also, I thought his name was literally Frankenweenie so his name probably isn’t well known.
