Roy Everett Frankhouser Jr. (also spelled Frankhauser; November 4, 1939 – May 15, 2009) was an American far-right activist, government informant, and security consultant to Lyndon LaRouche. He was a member or associate of a variety of far-right and neo-Nazi groups over several decades, including the American Nazi Party, and was a Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan. Frankhouser was reported by federal officials to have been arrested at least 142 times, and was convicted of federal crimes in at least three cases, including dealing in stolen explosives and obstruction of justice.

Author Frederick J. Simonelli noted that at "one time or another he was a member of just about every radical right-wing group in the United States". In the 1992 book Nazis, Communists, Klansmen, and Others on the Fringe, authors John George and Laird Wilcox described Frankhouser as simply "a nightmare". In 2003 he told a reporter, "I'm accused of everything from the sinking of the Titanic to landing on the moon."
