THE POLISHED UP MONSTER HIGH TIMELINE

Note that it's Monster High so naturally a few of these placements may contradict each other. Friday Night Frights could go after Skull Shores, but there's more evidence to suggest the opposite.

Also webisodes are evidently not in chronological order all the time, which is why not only can certain webisodes from certain volumes bleed out across the timeline, but also why I made the placement of the volumes so vague ( ie " the Volume 6 webisodes would happen near / around the end " rather than EXACTLY at the end ).

The video game New Ghoul In School likely takes place the following school year ( September 2014 )

Writing out the timeline displayed:

September 2011 - June 2012: New Ghoul At School + All of Volume One

September 2012 - December 2012: Fright On, ( Most Likely ) Friday Night Frights, Ghouls Rule. Volume 2 Webisodes mixed with a few Volume 3 Webisodes

January 2013 - Mid March 2013: Ghoulfriends Forever starts, Why Do Ghouls Fall In Love, Ghoulfriends Forever ends, Scaris City of Frights, Escape From Skull Shores. Volume 3 webisodes

Late March 2013 - June 2013: Ghoulfriends Just Wanna Have Fun, Who's That Ghoulfriend, and Til The End. It is possible for Ghoul It Yourself's mini story to have started in the summer break. Volume 3 Webisodes.

September 2013 - December 2013: 13 Wishes, Frights Camera Action. Volume 4 Webisodes + a few V3 Webisodes

January 2014 - Mid March 2014: Freaky Fusion, Ghoul it Yourself could have possibly also happened between This and Haunted, Haunted. Volume 4 and a few Volume 5 webisodes. Boo York could very well be over or close to Spring Break

Late March 2014 - June 2014: The end of Boo York could very well bleed in a little with the beginning of the semester. Great Scarrier Reef. Volume 6 webisodes with a few V5 webisodes

I will assume that semesters go as follows:

Sept - Dec ( S1 ), Jan - Mid Mar ( S2 ), Late Mar - June ( S3 )

Monster High spans over 2 years and 10 months, that would mean the following characters are, by the end of the series ( some characters are introduced / transfered later in the series ), some characters would, hypothetically, if MH cared about aging:

Clawdeen: 18

Frankie: almost 3 ( mentally likely around 18-19 )

Draculaura: 1602

Lagoona: 18

Cleo: 5845 ( mentally and physically though around the same as the rest of her ghoulfriends )

Abbey: 18

Ghoulia: 18, almost 19

Toralei: 17, almost 18

Purrsephone and Meowlody: 18

Operetta: 18

Howleen: 16

Twyla: 16

Venus: 17

Robecca: 117, almost 118 ( 17-18 yrs )

Rochelle: 417

Wydowna: 17

Jinafire: 1502

Skelita: 16 or 17, up to interpretation

Scarah: 17

Iris: She's slightly confusing as it's unsure if her age ( 15 ) has been established since her first appearance as a background character or since she started developing as a character, however you cannot attend Monster High if you're under 14, so it's safe to assume she's around 17

Catty: 17

Gigi: 16

Jane: 16 or 17

Catrine: 18 or 19, up to interpretation

Deuce: 19

Gil: 18

Heath: 18

Manny: 18

Clawd: 20

Invisi Billy: 17, almost 18

Finnegan: 18

Jackson / Hyde: 18

Nefera: 21

The Undead that aren't proven to age: this is more hypothetical on if these characters could age and what age they would be if possible. Everyone has their own Headcanons though:

Spectra: 17.5 ( + 100-200 depending on her death date )

Kiyomi: 16 or 17, depends on interpretation

River: 13, 14, or 15 depending on interpretation

Slo Mo: 20

Johnny: 15-18

Any characters not included is likely because of how new they were in G1 and likely wouldn't have aged much, or they just didn't age much period.

REMINDER

Monster High is known for anything BUT it's continuity. There could be lore explanations for why some characters are in Monster High despite being too old, and sometimes ages are likely forgotten by creators which happens a lot.

My math is also not the best so please feel free to correct me.

There are also issues with monsters who apparently age differently ( Rochelle, Robecca, Jinafire.. ) or age in " Monster years " ( which was never explained ). To that I say: make up how it works. Maybe Robecca gets rebuilt / remodeled to fit her new age, maybe gargoyles and dragons age in a gradient rather than a linear pattern, maybe some monsters need to form a connection and then they age, etc..

Or maybe all of Monster High gets the Ash Ketchum treatment and never age with very little exceptions

Also all of the ages are not canon and are purely hypothetical / what age they WOULD be if Monster High was actually consistent with aging. We do see some characters actually age, so it's really up to Headcanons on whether or not the ages above actually proceed or if they're eternally teenagers thorough out the series

I love venus but I dislike how she can sometimes come across as a bigot. don’t get me wrong her ideologies are very morally correct but her manipulating and hypnotising people is a little strange, EVEN if her intentions are good. if she could advocate for her beliefs more ethically I think she would have a better reputation around Monster High, since canonically other students avoid her because of her pollen of persuasion.

She's very pushy with her ideologies yeahhh, leading to her lashing out and like you said hypnotizing people. She doesn't even fully see the wrong in her actions sometimes. I both love and hate that: hate because it's obviously a bad thing but love because I honestly think it's executed very well and is a good character flaw !

I don't think just stopping the pollens would be enough to make people like her though, lol. She's canonically kind of a jerk :v

[powerplantlover]

are their any qualities about Drac that you like because surly there must be ONE you can give her credit for

She could, in theory, be fantastic. The only and I mean ONLY thing holding her back from being deep and nuanced is the narrative never holding her accountable.

A troubled, clearly traumatized teenage ghoul shifting from time period to time period, friendship through friendship, generation through generation, trying to fit in, to catch up, growing up with wealth but no attention, losing people left and right, clearly not built for immortality and suffering from unfortunate circumstances, craving attention and praise, leading her to doing things that come off as selfish, insensitive, rude, self victimizing, disloyal, pushy, self centered, and all around becoming a complicated person and bad friend despite her efforts to be good is something I'm so down for ! But all the narrative does is paint her as the helpless victim who is just so strong for doing the bare minimum and is so cutesy even when she's so dead wrong and anyone who criticizes her is mean !!!! It's such a waste of a potentially wonderful and enjoyable character.

I did really like her in 13 Wishes though. It was a nice change of pace and I think is the best representation of her sensitivity, lack of social cues, and will to be a good friend when it's not about her. Her interactions and reactions felt real instead of annoyingly over the top or sympathy bait.

I think her appearance in Haunted comes second for me. She was really annoying in the first half, but in the second half she locked in instead of crying and needing yet another pep talk. It shows growth which is something Monster High does once every whenever the fuck, and it was nice seeing Draculaura being the one to step up for someone else instead of being stepped up for.

In other words: I like when they let her do something for someone else when she's not the center of attention. She may usually be very self centered and pathetic, but that doesn't mean she doesn't want to at least try and be good.

[powerplantlover]

since Venus never got to play a main role in any of the movies (imo Venus in freaky fusion did jack shit and did nothing notable apart from the fact she got fused with Clawdeen) do you ever think that if she DID have a movie centred around her, what the plot could be?

Like it kinda annoys me that Rochelle has Friday night frights, Scaris city of frights and Haunted. Robecca has Friday night frights, Frights Camera action and Freaky Fusion while Venus has NOTHING. sure she was in freaky fusion but like her character felt so eh there !

Anyway sorry for this unnecessary input but typing all those movies out made me realise how the Mh writers LOVED to include the word “fright” into their titles

We will soon see a character who is just named Fright /silly

Anyways

In my rewrite, I gave her a movie esque plot that introduces her ( starts about a few weeks before Friday Night Frights ) in which she starts stalking Monster High, believing it to be evil and harming mother nature. Her plants slowly overwhelm the school, brainwashing teachers into talking purely about nature and underworld based religion and the fae.

With a barely conscious Bloodgood's help, the main ghouls realize what's going on, and it ends in a big confrontation and take down of Venus once she finally shows herself and attacks the school.

She cries and apologizes for everything now that she's grounded back in reality, and as punishment is made to fix the entire school. The big confrontation is also where those salmon pink scars on my Lagoona design come from.

In other words, other than just my specific idea, I can see her hypothetical movie being very nature and mental health themed. Venus isn't exactly mentally sound and we know how she feels about nature. So that being explored would've been nice.

But yeah, it's bullshit that she never got the spotlight outside of the Ghoulfriends books. She's a genuinely fun and interesting character, but nahhh we can't have that.

They couldn't even make her and Robecca interact in Freaky Fusion ? Like at all ? She didn't get to interact with her best friend and girlfriend ? Especially in such an important time ? Maybe Venus could've went along and possibly replaced Clawdeen in FCA ( lightheartedly Clawdeen did nothing and Cleo did One Thing ) ? She's very paranoid, I highly doubt she felt comfortable with Robecca venturing off to a suspicious place with Dumb Dumb and Dumber ( i believe FCA should be pre FFusion hence I don't think her n Clawdeen would've been buds yet ).

Idk maybe they thought she was too mean, gay, and mentally ill to be allowed to do anything lmao

Bro I promise you nobody cares where truther comes from it’s used colloquially to mean believer now, it’s so obvious you don’t support 9/11 anyway

I still feel like it'd be for the better to change my name to avoid any confusion or discomfort for people who aren't aware that the term has since been changed :v /nm

[powerplantlover]

not to be that guy but the term truther comes from 9/11 conspiracy theorists

OH OMG THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME ! I'll change my name right away ! Sorry for having not known :(

I'll change it to Powerplantlover

[powerplantlover]

I know you’re a Venus x Robecca truther, but hypothetically speaking, just say in an alternative universe, who would you pair them with other than each other?

NOOOBODYYYYY 👹 /silly

If PowerPlant was impossible even with polyamory, for both of them I'd say either Rochelle or Wydowna. Rochelle x Robecca is kinda cute and they've had some adorable moments. Wydowna x Robecca is a very cute concept and I think their unique whimsy would mix very well. Venus x Rochelle reminds me of and they act like an old married couple. Venus x Wydowna just feels like it'd work ( two very justice fueled and political people, their personalities could mix well, and even their powers would be a good mix ).

For other people... Hm...

Operetta x Venus gives me more toxic yuri bromance vibes. Operetta x Robecca is kinda cute but I've never really been able to connect with it. Besides I prefer Operetta x Wydowna by a long shot lol.

I do have Robecca x The Broken Vessel which is a ship I surprisingly think about semi frequently. Idk I think it's cute lol

I think Robecca x Scarah is a bit cute but ehh not sure about like. Main ship if that makes sense

I like Robecca x Elle in a void but again it's not really main ship material for me, plus I prefer Elle x Johnny and I see Johnny and Robecca as brother and sister

Drawing blanks on other Venus ships LOL. I don't like a lot of Venus ships. I don't like a lot of Robecca ships either but I hate more Venus ships

So yeah either Rochelle or Wydowna for both of them. I already have my own designated partners for both of them but they still have more than one hand

HAAAAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYY @digo3d

[powerplantlover]

I love logging into Tumblr to see Powerplanttruther's 123578900th post deconstructing Monster High media on a molecular level. Please don't shut up

Thank you anonymous. And once me and my bestie finish reading the diaries together I will be unstoppable.

Unless the diary books ( no not the diaries ) are lore important then I won't bother w them lol. That also means that I probably won't read the Lisi Harrison books

[autistic-valentine-simp]

I’m watching an Arab guy reviewing Aladdin and learned that “djiin” is a gendered term for the species!

This got me thinking…

Whisp’s full name is: “Djinni ‘Whisp’ Grant”.

She prefers the name “Whisp”, instead of the masculine species term of “Djinn”.

Whisp is trans and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Can you do this? a top tier list of mh characters

Johnny goes in AWESOME

[powerplantlover]

In your opinion,if monster high character is an object show character what object they would be?(in my head venus is venus flaytrap planted in a pot,frankie is a battery that made out different type of battery :>)

Hmmm...

Ah geez it's been a while since we've been into the object show scene lol. Trying to dig up our knowledge of the OSC from before 2023 as we speak. I fear our still ongoing love for HFJONE is only doing so much LOL

I'd say you're p spot on w Venus. Not sure what else she'd be lol

Robecca could be an antique and broken clock with robotic limbs rather than the usual black stick limbs.

Rochelllleee,,, statues are objects, but maybe a bit much for something like an object show... Maybe, if not a statue, then a granite rock with wings ?

Wydownaaaaa uhhh... I'm tempted to say a plush or rubber spider ? Might look awkward... Maybe a sticky hand with multiple limbs

Operetta could be an old record player or VHS... Hmmmm

Lagoona could be a fish tank. Out of water she puts a cork over her opening like how OJ from ii sometimes does

Abbeyyyy abbey abbey... Would a Snowman count ?

Jinnnn....... Those fucking... The 3d printed dragon things that flop around and shit... Not sure how well that translates into object show terms

Skelita is a sugar skull. Shockerrrr lol

Johnny could be a damaged fiddle

Heath is Firey /silly

That's all I got lol

[powerplantlover]

i don’t think Gil had any romantic feelings for Lorna but i think Lorna genuinely liked Gil in a way that she knew was wrong. it is weird to me how ALL of her ghoul friends did such nice gestures to cheer her up and she ignored them, but once Gil (by himself) went up to her she immediately felt better. Gil was crossing boundaries with lagoona and i think he deserves criticism but so does Lorna bc what was she doing!

Exactly. Doesn't matter that Gil had no romantic intent, he still should've at least texted Lagoona because that was a dumbass move to make. And like... I do genuinely hate Lorna, but she's also 14 so I wanna watch my words carefully: yeah. You can read as having feelings for Gil, that she sucked up to him easily because he's her good friend and the others weren't as close to her, she sucked up to him easily because he's a guy, and or she was just desperate to fill the void.

Either way it's fair to feel suspicious because, like you said, she ignored everything the ghouls tried doing for her, but she was quick to agree to Gil's request. We mostly see her around Gil and hogging up his time, too. While not canon, it's fair enough if people read her as male centric or crushing on Gil.

She is young, so I'm not surprised she's pulling stupid shit and potentially acting selfish and insensitive. Especially after her heart got broken during a significant time in her life. But that doesn't mean she doesn't deserve to be criticized for her actions. She's shown to seek attention and think only about herself until it's too late, and it's unfair to ignore that and treat her as a saint
