Frankenstein

In the story of Frankenstein, there are three real monsters: society, Frankenstein, and the creature. All three of these monsters have qualities that are threatening and lead to harm. In the story, the most obvious representation of a monster is the creature that Frankenstein created. The being had a hideous and disturbing physical appearance that was able to frighten and disgust any human being. To go along with his monstrous looks, the monster became a killing machine. He killed William, Frankenstein’s younger brother, Elizabeth, his wife, and also Henry, his best friend. This beast possessed all the necessary characteristics of a true monster: unnatural and extreme deformities, wickedness, lack of humanity for other humans, and the ability to kill.

While the creature may have had all the traits of a monster, Frankenstein, his creator, is a different definition of a monster. Frankenstein was a monster being that he toyed with nature and tried to play the role of God; he used his genius to unmorally create a human being. The scientist ultimately became a monster because of the results of his experiments. He put not only himself, but his family and the world as a whole in danger because he longed to find and recreat

The society’s inability to see beyond skin-deep and their less than compassionate treatment of ugly people like the creature is one of the biggest and most irreversible monsters of all.

I feel that Frankenstein was the second biggest monster mostly for the fact that he ran away and abandoned his creation. It was terribly wrong that he brought a being into the world and then left him for possible death due to the fact that he was ugly and not a perfect model of his hypothesis. Frankenstein was also a monster for all the pain and suffering he put his family and friends through. I rank him as number two and not number one because he did not create a companion for the creature. Although Franken
