Product Description / Story

Frankenstein

Frankenstein's is a fictional character who first appeared in Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus. Shelley's book compares the monster's creator, Victor Frankenstein, to the mythological character Prometheus, who fashioned humans out of clay and gave them fire.

In Shelley's Gothic story, Victor Frankenstein builds the creature in his laboratory collecting parts from dead people and stitching them together, and then though the powers of chemistry and alchemy bringing the creature to life! The monster is 2 meters and 40 cm tall extremely hideous almost repulsive, however it is also emotional with human like qualities. Frankenstein's monster became iconic in popular culture, and has been featured in various forms of media, including films, television series, merchandise and video games. The most iconic version is the portrayal of Frankenstein by Boris Karloff in the 1931 film.


Nosferatu 

The vampire is a creature from folklore that lives by feeding on the blood of the living and is known for its manipulative nature; this theme has been held in common throughout the many adaptations. In European folklore, vampires are undead creatures that often-visited loved ones and caused mischief or deaths in the neighborhoods they inhabited while they were alive. 

From these tales spawned a myriad of genres including vampire literature, horror fiction, gothic fiction, and invasion literature, theatrical plays, films, and television interpretations. The most iconic are Dracula, the 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker, as well as the 1922 film Nosferatu staring Max Schreck. In this cinematic portrayal we see the most iconic depiction of Nosferatu, Dracula or Vampire!
