Favorite Marvel horror monster.

In honor of Halloween coming in a few days and the expanding collection of Essential volumes from Marvel's horror books of the '70s, I decided to post a thread with a poll. Who's your favorite of Marvel's horror characters? Personally, from what I've managed to read so far, I think they did a really good job with Frankenstein's Monster. It helped that they used the actual book as source material. I like the Werewolf too, just not as much as Frankenstein's monster. For whatever reason, I never warmed up to their version of Dracula.

I know this isn't on the list, but what about Morbius? Guy turns himself into a vampire, and then gets vengeance on evil doers by sucking their blood. Even though I don't ever remember them being specifically scary, at least not on a regular basis, my favorite horror monsters from Marvel will be Ghost Rider, Morbius, Mephisto, and the rest of Hell's minions who found their way into 90's books.

PS: I've heard there's a new Ghost Rider book out. I haven't read it. Is it any good?

Even tho there not in the poll, my favorite monsters are: Hellstorm and Shuma-Gorath.

Yeah it's good to pick it up, the art is cool too.

Hmm, yeah, not every monster Marvel ever created is on the poll. I mainly just listed the ones that I thought were the most traditional horror monsters from Marvel's line in the '70s. I mainly think of Morbius as a Spider-Man rogue. And Ghost Rider and Damian Hellstrom aka Son of Satan are more like horror-superhero fusion characters (like how Iron Fist is kung fu-superhero fusion). I'll leave it as is for now but next time I create a poll maybe I'll think more outside the box.
