Biography[]

Francesca is the secretary of the retiring Baron Boris von Frankenstein. She is often flirted with by several monsters. After he created the most perfect (and lethal) formula, Francesca sought to get rid of his new successor in order to have it for herself. To do that, she makes a deal with Dracula to help kill Felix Flanken, though Frankenstein's Monster's Mate overheard the secret meeting. Francesca takes Felix out on a picnic tour so Dracula would assassinate him, but the vampire fails three times. After the failed operation, Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, and The Monster's Mate join forces and attempt to murder Francesca who promptly escapes and, in wrathful frustration, sends an invitation letter to It, a destructive giant gorilla who was banned from the monsters' convention. Later, after being saved by Felix from both a moat of killer alligators and soon afterwards a giant carnivorous jungle plant, Francesca falls in love with the nerdy yet heroic young man. They join forces in both love and mutual survival through the island's jungle while being pursued by the monsters, themselves now in full rebelling against Dr. Frankenstein and his human heir. Eventually, she (as well as Boris and the monsters) gets taken by "It". After their deaths, Francesca swam to Felix's boat and admits that she was a robotic creation made by Baron Boris von Frankenstein and that she was unable to marry him and have children because of it. However, Felix answers that "none of us are perfect"—mechanically repeating the words "are perfect," indicating that he has also been a robot creation of his uncle all this time.
