Bob Pickett is most famous for his classic novelty hit song, "Monster Mash," which he co-wrote and has been performing since 1962. He has become the Guy Lombardo of Halloween and the recording itself has become the national anthem of that fun holiday. As an actor his credits include television, theatre and several obscure, low-budget films with titles such as It's a Bikin' World and Chrome and Hot Leather. In the spring of 1996 he played the title role in the movie Frankenstein Sings, based on I'm Sorry the Bridge Is Out, You'll Have to Spend the Night. It was released on video from Turner Home Entertainment.
