Using Deconstruction and Psychoanalytic theory, we examine Victor and his Creature—not just as characters, but as fractured reflections of obsession, repression, and identity. Each episode unravels the novel’s hidden fears, contradictions, and philosophical tensions: What does the Creature reveal about the human psyche? Is Victor haunted more by his creation or himself? This is Frankenstein through the eyes of critical theory—monstrous, tragic, and deeply human.

What if the real monster isn’t the Creature, but Victor’s own haunted mind? What happens when the line between creator and creation begins to crumble?

We explore how guilt, and the unconscious shape Victor’s choices, and how language and identity unravel when we try to label someone as purely “monster” or “man.” By the end, you’ll see Shelley’s gothic masterpiece not as a story of science gone wrong, but as a mirror reflecting our most terrifying inner truths.
