↪ Night 14: The Ghost of Frankenstein
Ghost of Frankenstein opens hilariously with the people of Frankenstein village doing their usual angry mob thing, looking for a scapegoat for all of their recent troubles, so they get permission from the mayor to blow up Castle Frankenstein after threatening his reelection. Look at that McCurdy, a politician maintaining power by turning a blind eye towards mob violence to direct attention and ire away from problems he more than likely caused himself, a tale as old as time. However their dynamite only serves to free Frankenstein’s Monster from his internment deep within the hardened sulfur pit below the Castle’s Laboratory. After escaping with Ygor, who is magically still alive as well, the dastardly duo head to another village to find yet another Son of Frankenstein, Ludwig, to once more use electricity to help the monster somehow, we don’t know, we’re not really told what’s going on or why anything is happening at all. But then Ludwig talks to his father’s ghost, who tells him to fix the Monster’s brain, but then Ygor conspires with Ludwig’s assistant to put YGOR’S brain into The Monster’s body so that Ygor will live forever as the Monster, but the villagers of this new village form yet another angry mob and burn down Ludwig’s home with the Ygor Monster Combo Thing in it, and then they both die!
