Solitude was my only consolation - deep, dark, deathlike solitude.

Mary Shelley

victor frankenstein will be like “a terrifying creature is trying to murder me :(“ my brother in christ you sewed him together in your dorm room

[glamourweaver]

Muppet Frankenstein, where the only human actor is the Monster, and he has no prosthetics. Everyone just reacts to the one human in their world as a horrific monster. The body parts before the animation are even visibly felt Muppet limbs, but the creature rises as a human.

The Hollywood creation of "Castle Frankenstein" as the place where Victor creates the Creature is really a shame, as it prevents the wider public from knowing the hilarity of the fact that Victor made his fucked up homunculus in his student housing at the college in Ingolstadt. Imagine you're trying to get your bachelor's degree and the chem major down the hall has created a crime against god in his fucking dorm room AND THEN HE LEAVES IT THERE. The creature has to make his own damn way off campus somehow!!!

I love how the message of Frankenstein isn’t “don’t play god and commit hubristic acts of mad science” but instead “when you commit a hubristic act of mad science you are responsible for parenting whatever comes out of it”

#mary shelley #frankenstein #classic literature #dark academia #academia #Mary Shelley really said if god won’t parent Their creations they will not turn out well #and she was right

I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.

“jonathan harker could do frankenstein, but victor frankenstein could not do dracula” okay, but what if we swap the antagonists instead. dracula murders all of switzerland in two days, meanwhile jonathan and mina adopt the monster as their son and no one dies
