Victor Frankenstein longs to cure diseases. If he can cure diseases then he can stop death. He uses his chemistry skills to create a man. Instead of a man he creates a monster. The monster is lonely and longs for companionship. It begs Victor to create a mate for it but Victor refuses. The monster gets angry and kills Victor’s friends and family.
