Trivia[]
- Igor is based off of the stock-character "Igor" who is attributed to being the hunchbacked lab-assistant of Dr. Frankenstein in Gothic stories. In the actual movies, Frankenstein's hunchbacked lab-assistant was named Fritz while Ygor was a grave-robber from the third movie who had a twisted neck.
- Igor's voice is modeled after that of actor Peter Lorre who is often misattributed to having portrayed the character.
