Victor Frankenstein, a young science student, creates a grotesque but sentient creature in an unorthodox scientific experiment. Despite his intentions, the beautiful creation of his dreams is instead hideous. Repulsed by his work, Victor flees and dismisses him. Saddened by the rejection, the Creature disappears and his encounters with people led to his fear of them, driving him into the wilderness. The Creature demands that Victor create a female companion like himself, but finally Victor destroys her and the Creature claims for vengeance.
