Victor Frankenstein Unleashed
There are multiple sides to Victor Frankenstein's personality. In the early years of his life he is an innocent young man who is fascinated by science but as he becomes more engulfed by recreating life he quickly turns into a guilt-ridden and self contained man. As a young man Victor worked and studied extremely hard in order to learn everything there is to know about science. He thrived at the University at Ingolstadt but, in a few short years he gained all the knowledge he's teachers had to offer. He then soon began to study and research the spark of life. Visitor worked for many years in the isolation of his apartment to create his monster. Little did he know that the results of all his hard work would greatly affect his family and his emotional stability forever. After the monster murdered William and caused Justine to be executed he quickly slid down a slippery slope into depression and horrible guilt. Even in real life many people follow the same path that Visitor did and become someone they once were not as a result of a terrible tragedy. Have you yourself ever gone throught this or known someone who has?

Yes! I won't mention names but just like the novel when William and Justine die, it torments Frankenstein and changes him to be someone els. In real life, there are cases when someone has died and as a result, a person closely realated to them becomes an alcoholic or drug addict, which is someone completely different then who they used to be.
