Monster High was founded in 2010, as a line of fashion dolls and media franchise owned by Mattel. The dolls were inspired by horror movies and sci-fi creatures and featured high school characters with monster heritage. The characters included Draculaura, Frankie Stein, Clawdeen Wolf, and many more. These dolls quickly gained popularity in the tween market and went on to inspire movies, books, and webisodes. The brand has since expanded to include other merchandise, including clothing, accessories, and even video games. Despite facing controversy and criticism from some parents, Monster High remains a staple in the toy industry, continuing to inspire young girls to embrace their unique and diverse qualities.
