Hoodude Voodoo

"When your initial mourning period is over, about 4 years, you will have the confidence to love again."

- HooDude in the Gory Gazette

Hoo Dude is a human-sized living voodoo doll, created by Frankie Stein to be her emergency boyfriend. For this reason, he has a major crush on her. He was introduced in the webisode "HooDoo You Like?" and is voiced by Cam Clarke.

Personality
Hoo Dude is a kind soul, but with a penchant for melodrama. His main concern in life is being loved by Frankie, but he pursues it passively rather than actively. As a voodoo doll, he doesn't experience physical pain and seems obivious to it, such harm done to him is instead felt by any monster near him.

Family
A simulacrum, HooDude doesn't really have family. The closest comes Frankie Stein, who is his creator, but not a parent.

Friends
Hoo Dude is seen hanging out with Heath Burns in Zom-Beach Party.

Romance
Hoo Dude was made for the sole purpose of being Frankie's boyfriend when she thought she needed one to connect with her friends. Frankie tried to bring him to life the same way her father had done for her, but it didn't seem like it had worked. So, Frankie brought HooDude along to school the next day, badly pretending he was alive. When her friends told her she didn't need a boyfriend to hang out with them, Frankie "broke off the relation" by putting HooDude with the trash. At that moment, HooDude revealed he was alive after all, running away while crying that Frankie didn't love him anymore. Later, in "Ghostly Gossip", he read in the Ghostly Gossip that Frankie was dating three boys, one of them yet to be revealed. He assumed that was him and went to look for Frankie, finding her only when she was explaining what a ridiculous rumor it was that she'd be dating three boys.

A Plush doll of Hoodude will be included with the SDCC 2012 exclusive Scarah Screams doll, where he appears to be her date.
