Dr. Alphonse Mephisto is a fictional character in the animated television series South Park and is voiced by Trey Parker. He is the town's mad scientist, best known for his involvement in the first two seasons of the show, though he has rarely appeared since. He has a son called Terrance, and is largely based on Marlon Brando's role as Dr. Moreau.

Dr. Mephisto is well-known for his unique creations, mostly modified clones of various animals.
Kevin is "that little monkey guy" who follows Mephisto around, and is described as a failed attempt to make a famous pop star. He is Dr. Mephisto's assistant, and never speaks. A song by Primus on the Chef Aid album gives an account of Kevin's origin, which may or may not be canon.
Most of Dr. Mephisto's creations are animals with multiple sets of buttocks, in particular his somewhat evil looking "four assed monkey." Mephisto believes it is for the good of the Earth, and that one-assed animals are useless and must be destroyed. While the majority of his creations have four asses, Mephisto successfully created a "five assed monkey," which his son Terrence presented as his science fair project when his one-assed clone of Stan rampaged and destroyed the town and had to be killed (see below). Also, Dr. Mephisto presented a seven-assed Galapagos Turtle in an attempt to win a Nobel Prize, but lost to Randy Marsh's "Unified Theory of Fart Thing." Dr. Mephisto also carries a cane, which on the top of it is an ass.
The boys sought Mephisto's assistance in cross breeding a pig and elephant for a science fair. While there, Mephisto caught Stan unawares and took a swab of his DNA. Mephisto then grew a giant clone of Stan, which turned out deformed and rampaged throughout the town. It was finally stopped by Stan's brutal sister Shelley who smashed it into a wall. The clone was to be Terrance Mephisto's science fair project, but when it failed Terrance took a five-assed monkey created by Dr. Mephisto instead.
Dr. Mephisto created a large number of turkey clones, supposedly for the purpose of ending world hunger. Like many of his projects, however, they were ultimately a failure. They escaped and rampaged through South Park, killing indiscriminantly, and they all had to be shot. The turkeys also appear on the first level of the South Park video game, in which Mephisto is an unlockable player.

Mephisto has not had a major role in South Park for quite some time. All the scientific work is carried out by Randy Marsh, who is considered the town's only scientist. Mephisto is, however, still featured in the background of the title sequence and had a cameo in "It's Christmas in Canada", though he had no lines.
- Mephisto's brother attempts to shoot him every month.
- He is a member of the National Association of Marlon Brando Look Alikes.
- Mephisto will be included in the fifth series of South Park action figures by Mezco.
- As noted by the creators, Mephisto's character is based off a UCLA microbiology professor Roger Bohman who teaches a popular course on AIDS awareness at the school
