Fueled by his ambition, he assembles a being from cadavers and animates it through his scientific expertise.

However, Victor is immediately repulsed by the hideous look of his creation and decides to leave it behind. Despite being intelligent and capable of feelings, the creature is rejected by society because of its frightening appearance.

Overcome with feelings of loneliness and rejection, it becomes filled with a desire for revenge against its creator for neglecting it.

The being launches a brutal rampage, murdering those dear to Victor and causing widespread devastation. Overwhelmed by guilt, Victor commits himself to the goal of annihilating the creature for the remainder of his life.
