Frankenstein is a Hardmode enemy that spawns during the Solar Eclipse event. Frankensteins are as common as Zombies are at night, but have increased stats.

Trivia

  • Frankenstein is a reference to the 1931 science fiction horror film Frankenstein. This follows the theme of Solar Eclipse Enemies as classic horror film icons.[1] Like most pop culture references, Re-Logic propagates the common misconception that Frankenstein is the name of the monster, whereas, in reality, it is the name of the scientist who created the unnamed monster, Victor Frankenstein.
  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Frankenstein: "Built from parts of deceased Terrarians, this stout monster resulted from a crazy man's desire to create life with his own hands."
