The Addams Family
The Addams Family was a satirical look at a typical middle-class American family, created by the cartoonist Charles Addams.
They were an eccentric and wealthy aristocratic clan who delight in the macabre. From their debut in the 1938, to the death of Charles Addams in 1988, more than 150 unrelated one panel cartoons featuring the Addams were published, more than half in the New Yorker alone.
In fact the Addams Family has had a huge influence on American culture and is credited as being the inspiration behind the goth subculture and fashion. The likes of the Telegraph and Time have likened there appeal and influence to that of the Kennedy family.
