I've heard various versions of the famous Frankenstein story. As a kid, I always thought the monster was Frankenstein himself, but I found out later that he was actually the scientist that created the monster. I've read about it in comics and books, but I've never actually seen a film or a play about Frankenstein's monster. Until I saw the Bride of Frankenstein.

The Bride of Frankenstein, directed by James Whale, begins at a crowd cheering at the monster's apparent death. After some time, somebody wanted to see for himself the monster's bones, but is strangled by the actually-alive monster. The monster also attacks and kills his wife, while another one runs away in terror.

The monster roams around, eventually hearing the sound of a violin playing. He locates the source of a sound: a blind priest inside a cottage.
