When Fred wins the big prize on "Make A Deal or Don't" game show, he and Wilma plan a vacation with Barney and Betty to Count Rockula's spooky castle in Rocksylvania where they encounter Rockula and Frankenstone, who have both awaken from a 500-year sleep. Rockula falls in love with Wilma and it's a game of hide-and-seek as the Count and Frakenstone try to catch Fred, Wilma, Barney and Betty.
Rockula and Frankenstone
*Count Rockula: a campy and not-so-bloodthirsty vampire with a lust for women and a fear for werewolves, prompting him to build a Frankenstone monster to keep them away. Having been asleep for five hundred years, Rockula is awoken by Frankenstone and sets out to clean his castle of the guests and take Wilma, whom he thinks is his bride, for himself, even if it means killing Fred. Ironically, he is very similar to the one first featured in the episode "Blood Brothers" of "
The New Fred and Barney Show ".*Frankenstone: Count Rockula's half-finished creation with a scratchy voice and brain of a dumb idiot. His only mission in life: to carry out Rockula's orders, although he sometimes finds extreme difficulty in accomplishing even the simplest of tasks (in the film's possibly most hilarious scene, Frankenstone is ordered to search some barrels for Fred, and fails to notice Fred crouching right beside him). Despite the resemblance, he is not to be confused with the Frank Frankenstone character that first appeared in the episode "Fred and Barney Meet the Frankenstones" of "
The New Fred and Barney Show ", the TV special "The Flintstones' New Neighbors " or "The Flintstone Comedy Show".Voices
