The creepy and kooky Addams Familyhave been dominating pop culture for almost a century, with the recent animated Addams Familymovies introducing the youngest generation to the beloved characters. A twisted parody of the American family, the Addams Family is obsessed with the macabre and the grotesque, and they are rarely concerned with what others find frightening, which, of course, often leads to comedy. Originally created by cartoonist Charles Addams in 1938, the Addams Family consists of father Gomez, mother Morticia, daughter Wednesday, and son Pugsley, among other relatives.
