John Browne, The Addams Family is a fictional household created by American cartoonist Charles Addams. The Addamses are a satirical inversion of the ideal twentieth-century American family: an eccentric wealthy aristocratic clan who delight in the macabre and are seemingly unaware, or do not care, that other people find them bizarre or frightening. They originally appeared as an unrelated group of 150 single-panel cartoons, about half of which were originally published in The New Yorker between their debut in 1938 and Charles Addams' death in 1988. They have since been adapted to other media, including an animated series, a television series, two feature film releases, a made-for-television movie, a second animated series, as well as a Broadway musical. The series is also credited with the creation of the Goth subculture and has also spawned a video game series, academic books, and soundtracks based around its Grammy-nominated theme song. The Addams Family has no relation to the Munsters.
