About this audiobook

Award-winning actress Julie Harris delivers a chilling reading of the most famous and compelling horror story of all time. Victor Frankenstein is a young scientist whose experiments in alchemy lead to a disturbing achievement—the ability to create new life from dead body parts. His ultimate creation—a large, monstrous creature—wreaks havoc, but in ways much different from those depicted on film. To hear the original tale, curl up on a lonely evening—with lights low and perhaps a storm raging outside—and return to the 19th century to experience a classic evocation of the macabre story.
