Plot

Starting at the North Pole, a sea captain and his explorer crew encounter Dr. Frankenstein and his creature trying to kill each other. The doctor is saved. As he warns the captain of danger, he tells how he made his creature in the Switzerland of 1818 by way of chemical and biological construction. The creature is a clone (of sorts) of Frankenstein himself, establishing a psychic bond between the Creator and his Creation.
