This is the only skit I've heard Bill Hader use his normal voice and he's playing a monster lol

[@mattb3636]

Plot twist he is a monster

[@ozu2647]

That isn’t his normal voice, he sounds like he’s doing an impression of Jason Sudeikis right now

[@doc8013]

@@ozu2647 um, no, that's what Bill hader sounds like.

[@ozu2647]

Doc It just has a more sarcastic tone than his normal voice has, like hes leaning into the “blaaaaah” sounds

[@doc8013]

@@ozu2647 bro, that's how Bill hader sounds. Watch Barry and you'll see.

[@sapphirewingthefurrycritic985]

This is weirdly accurate since the monster was actually pretty well spoken.

[@audreymai2773]

Except they called the monster "Frankenstein".

[@MANESHARK]

The monster was also yellow, long haired, and 8 ft tall.

[@MANESHARK]

@LostSilhouette That did not happen in the book. It happens in a lot of other stories that incorporates the character.

[@MANESHARK]

@LostSilhouette That is 100% where it came from. One of the books the Monster read was Paradise Lost.

[@Deuteromis]

I know 😂

[@casted8034]

"Seriously dude, get that fire away from me" Cracked me up, when he gave him the look.

[@zacharyspinks6207]

Absolutely, ha ha!

[@johnmartin4119]

He says it so passive aggressively

[@thomasreese2816]

Feels like it was improv'd

[@SpeedRacer1125]

Isn’t in the original novel that Frankenstein’s monster hated or was scared of fire?

[@GodBear97]

@@SpeedRacer1125 I don't think so, the monster is a much more complex character in the original novel than in most movies, I mean, he has full conversations with Frankenstein about being lonely and being in love and such

[@alienz8641]

I like how casual Frankenstein's monster is, even when around the fire.

[@priscillajimenez27]

Seriously, Dude, get that fire away from me.

[@kaikai9122]

I like ur profile pic

[@christianbaez7422]

I like how you said Frankenstein’s monster instead of Frankenstein

[@johnmarr2695]

Jason sudekis as dracula just casually buffing his nails helped this. Between that and hader just being himself as the monster. Perfect

[@damiresq]

House saying "wrong house" sounds hilarious

ROADHOUSE that too

[@patopye]

This reminds me so much of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

[@NatalieMacdonald769769]

Tis but a scratch

[@jacktrppr1]

She turned me into a newt!

[@alienz8641]

Except that it's Frankenstein based and it's american.

[@Lunarsight]

One of the mob people was definitely channeling Mr. Gumby.

[@DravenGal]

It is truly reminiscent of it. Also a touch of Young Frankenstein.

[@pozzythump868]

How about, "The Curse of Bill Hader," everything he appears in seems to wind up in my save folder after I watch it.

[@azraelbatosi]

Pozzy Thump the guy really elevated the comedy...it’s startling without him

[@Blingus7502]

“Now its a racial thing” *NOTICEABLY UNCOMFORTABLE LAUGHTER*

[@fredbloggs2206]

It would be even more uncomfortable if it was this week (mid June 2020)!

[@poluticon]

It wasn’t uncomfortable

[@Wildstar40]

It was okay though because nobody with green skin was offended.

[@Cosmocarreon3045]

Lol 😂 I love the way Dracula said “he said what?!” On 1:17 absolutely hilarious

[@mreeping]

Can we just give props to the snl set designers? They always impress me!!!

[@EchoesDistant]

The costumes are always fantastic, also.

[@SocietyOfOne]

that's their freaking job!

[@thekingofclorox2227]

"Oh great thanks a lot I almost forgot that spinal injury was I four years old thanks for bringing back those rosey memories" 😆

[@justincoleman3805]

Reminds me of that time I was bit by a wolf.

[@alienz8641]

In the book, Frankenstein's monster isn't described to have a square head, green skin, or bolts in his neck, he was actually described to appear the same as a regular person, execpt for the fact that he was 7 to 8 feet tall, and that he had weird eyes. And Frankenstein himself never said "It's Alive!" either. But bailed as soon as it woke up.

[@Rurusa11]

All of the trouble could have been avoided if Victor wasn't such a dick and abandoned his creation.

NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD!!!!!

[@geeked-outturtlesfan4288]

How do we know you're not the monster

[@folarinosibodu]

That "hey dude, get that fire away from me" sounded improvised and real at first

[@hanamingus9043]

it prolly was

[@dancepiglover]

Definitely has a Monty Python or Mel Brooks feel to it.

[@qzg7857]

Yeah i was thinking about holly grail and that scene with witch

[@rosebrassard3795]

YESSS I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THAT!!

[@andiward7068]

Looney Tunes

[@JacobAwsum]

Looney toons, Mel Brooks, Disney, Python, Tomska. So many feelings and senses.

[@ericanton7]

If it was Mel Brooks there would be a hundred terrible puns.

[@tylerkeller8869]

"hey dude, get that fire away from me" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@somerandomchannel382]

I think that was actually Bill Hader telling the actor to don't have a burning torch next to him for hazardous reasons. Not for funny dialogue.

[@jihyoholic1386]

I read that when he said that lol

[@ammarabraham]

@@somerandomchannel382 Yes I think that too. That was a bit abrupt and to be fair the fire was too close to him.

What do you mean we got the wrong House? lol....

[@96navya]

you got that pun too :p

What's actually great about this is Frankenstein's Monster( Adam is his name), is he is very intelligent and well spoken in the book.

Hader reminds me of Bugs Bunny in this skit.

[@johnford2199]

The monster in the “Curse of Frankenstein” 1957 starring Christopher Lee, looks a lot different. The monster portrayed here is from the Boris Karloff “Frankenstein”

[@zbeebs]

I'm sure both Bill and Jason are perfectly capable of the classic "Frankenstein" and "Dracula" voices, so for both of them to just do it in their own natural voices makes this all the funnier.

[@cdespota]

This is the most Monty Python SNL skit ever.

You know. Realistically Dracula is probably a much bigger problem than Frankenstein. I mean, big green just wants to be left alone and live a normal life. Bat man is the one who hunts people.
