Summary
Dr. Frankenstein learns the secret imparting life to inanimate matter. To test his theories, he collects bones from the charnel-houses to construct a "human being", and then gives it life. The creature, endowed with supernatural size and strength, is revolting to look at, and frightens all who see it. Lonely and miserable, it comes to hate its creator. The monster murders Frankenstein's brother and his bride, and flees. The doctor pursues his creation in order to destroy it, but dies himself in the attempt
