He breathed life into the Monster in November. As opposed to being pleased with his prosperity, as he had gladly foreseen, Victor was astonished. He proposed to make a "wonderful" animal, yet the Monster was "a disaster." As he continued, and soon turned out to be so fervent and energetic that the stars regularly vanished in the light of morning while he was yet occupied with his laboratory. "However now that he had completed," he told Walton that the magnificence of the fantasy vanished and short of breathe frightfulness and sicken filled his heart. He hurried out of his research center and paced forward and backward in his room. Physically and rationally depleted, he at last fallen into brief rest. In a frightful dream, Victor kissed Elizabeth, who then passed on and changed into his dead mothers. The Monster went to his bed, and Victor kept running off. Throughout the night, he paced in the yard "in the best fomentation." The following morning, Victor went into Ingolstadt and strolled erratically through the boulevards. He thought of lines from Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." Henry Clerval, who had gone to the college for studies found Victor and took him back to his house. The Monster had fled, which was Victor's relief. He had a mental meltdown, getting to be unconscious where Henry nursed him back to life through the winter. In the dream, he saw the image of his dead mother. This resembles the new creature he was trying to form. Here, he acquires knowledge concerning his place. This gives him an idea concerning the souls after death. He recognized the connection between the living and the dead. After recovering, Henry persuaded Victor to keep in touch with his dad and assure him about his wellbeing through a letter of his handwriting. Through the entire process, Victor it can be regarded as a learning endeavor. He also noted that some incidents are changeable like the nature of human feeling. In the past two years, he had worked in the effort to infuse life into a lifeless body. He had deprived of his health and rested in an ardor to learn, but the beauty of his dream vanished in a breathless horror.
Frankenstein: The Monster Within
Frankenstein revealed some levels of the monster within himself and himself within the monster. In this part, the presence of frenzy or disease, and an abnormal dead/undead monster is evident.

Creating another being would make him a creator and source. He asserted that a new incredible creature would owe its life to him. He jokingly said that no father would appreciate his child if he did not have a full claim to him or her. As the monster, Frankenstein's limbs trembled and his eyes swim with the recognition. However, a resistless, and practically unglued, drive encouraged him forward. He appeared to have lost all spirit or sensation yet for this one interest. He was pleased with the appearance of the created creature. He could not hide his joy and feeling at this dangerous time. He did not care about or the outline of the unfortunate with such unending torments and care he had formed. The limbs of the monster were customized and were designed using lovely and beautiful features. He portrayed his craft skills through his appreciation of yellow skin and the underneath muscles. The monster had brilliant dark and streaming hair. It had brilliant white teeth like those of its creator. However, the monster's traits were framed in a more loathsome appearance. The monster can be termed as a reflection of the creator. These were lovely characters portrayed by the creator in resemblance of Frankenstein. However, since he could not endure the appearance of the new creature. He rushed out of the room. Therefore, it can be argued that Frankenstein was himself a monster.

The beauty of his dream led him closer to the achievement. The results of his experience gave him a life lesson and imparted knowledge.

In the dream, he saw his dead mother resembling that he could be transformed into a monster at some point after his death. Further, it is clear that the monster created had some resemblance to its creator, and he admired its existence until the occurrence of the incident.
