What is Frankenstein about?

Victor Frankenstein is fascinated by the secrets of life. When he succeeds in creating a living being, he is horrified by its frightening appearance and abandons it. Lonely and rejected, the creature becomes determined to make Victor suffer. As danger follows Victor and the people he loves, he must face the terrible consequences of his experiment. This chilling retelling of Mary Shelley’s classic explores ambition, responsibility, loneliness and the question of what makes someone a monster.
