Frankenstein, according to press notes, "is destined to become one of the world's most compelling Halloween rock musical traditions.

Each year, Frankenstein will appear for limited performances at the time of All Hallow's Eve somewhere in the world. Cities under consideration for 2010 include London, Paris and Berlin."
