"Monster High is an American fashion doll franchise created by Mattel in July, 2010. The characters are inspired by monster movies, sci-fi horror, thriller fiction, and various creatures therefore distinguishing them from most fashion dolls. They were created by Garrett Sander, with illustrations by Kellee Riley."(Wikipedia)
*Mattel is know for deforestation and cruel practices. If you need to buy the dolls, movies, etc try ebay, instead. That way the profits are going to a person, not the company. The characters are fun and exciting, but the company itself are meanies, and bullies.
