Frankenstein is the story of an eccentric scientist Victor Frankenstein and his creation. Victor undertakes an unconventional experiment and succeeds in creating a living being, but with horrifying results. Written by Mary Shelley when she was young, this story is the first science fiction novel to achieve cult status and a spine-chilling read.
Victor Frankenstein, born into an affluent Swiss family, seeks knowledge and goes on to explore new fields in science. He ends up creating a ghastly being but hastily abandons it. However, his creation longs for his companionship.
The creature is feared and hated by everyone because of its monstrous looks. It is soon filled with hatred for its master when it realizes why it is abhorred by society. It decides to seek out Victor with terrible vengeance and things go out of hand.
This conflict between the creator and his creation, along with its irrevocable consequences, is the central theme of Frankenstein.
