Creating a Monster in Chapter 18 on Frankenstein



Back in Geneva, Victor begins to study how he will create a second monster, he wants to know the latest scientific developments in the community. He recovers himself and tells his father he wants to tour London. He promises his father when he comes back he'll marry Elizabeth. Once he got there, both him and Henry toured around London. His best friend Henry Clerval accompanies Victor on his journey.
Victor goes to London to make a creature for the monster he first created.
He later realizes creating another monster would start another mess.
"Begone! I do break my promise; never will I create another like yourself, equal in deformity and wickedness." As Frankenstein creates the Eve for his Adam, he grows terrified his mate would be "ten thousand more malignant" than his mate. Breaking the promise to the monster, he destroys all body parts he had gathered to produce the female creature. With this the monster grows with hate and anger and says "It is well. I go; but remember, I shall be with you on your wedding- night."
This foreshadows what he will soon in Victor's life.
The monster sets out to destroy Victor's life.
