Frankenstein. Part Four.

Available for over a year

Victor finally achieves the goal that has consumed him for years, but the moment of success quickly turns to horror. Terrified by what he has brought into the world, he abandons his creation and descends into illness and despair. As his devoted friend Henry Clerval helps him recover, Victor tries to bury the events of that night, but the shadow of his experiment refuses to disappear. Brilliant young scientist Victor Frankenstein defies the natural order, piecing together a living creature from stolen body parts. But horror instantly replaces triumph when he looks upon his grotesque creation. A relentless game of cat-and-mouse ensues between the desperate Frankenstein and the monster he abandoned. The Haunted Library is open. Come in. Stay awhile.
