The Ghost of Frankenstein Page #7

---

She was stolen, stolen by the fiend

who murdered Carl and Josef.

We've searched the hills, the mountains

and the forests, and he can't be found.

Why can't he be found?

Why can't the police find him?

There's a very good reason. He's being

harboured, protected by someone.

There's only one person

that would protect a maniac like that.

- Who?

- Dr. Frankenstein.

Let's go to Frankenstein

and choke the truth out of him.

Mr. Ernst!

They're on their way to Dr. Frankenstein!

Stop! Stop right where you are!

When did you decide

to take the law into your own hands?

When we found out

we couldn't get any help from you.

Two men have been murdered,

and we want that maniac.

My little child has been stolen.

The law in Vasaria has done everything

in its power to apprehend this monster.

Maybe Dr. Frankenstein

can tell us where he is.

Nothing's to be gained

by hasty action.

Nothing's to be gained by waiting either...

when the prosecutor's in love

with Frankenstein's daughter.

That has nothing to do with my duty.

Let me have a few moments alone

with Dr. Frankenstein.

If he's concealing this monster,

he must be made to give him up.

If he refuses,

you can take any action you want to.

Does that sound fair to you, men?

I'd like to see Dr. Frankenstein.

He isn't seeing anyone.

- He'll have to see me.

- Erik.

What are those people doing at the gates?

They're demanding to see your father.

Why? What do they want with him?

They think he knows something

about the monster's disappearance.

What can we do?

I've got to see him before they do, or

I can't be responsible for the consequences.

- What is it you want?

- The villagers are getting out of hand.

If you expect the protection of my office,

you'll have to be frank.

There are certain matters

which must be clarified.

- What do you mean?

- The case of Dr. Kettering.

He did not return home.

He wasn't even expected there.

He did not leave Vasaria by train,

as you intimated.

Your servants say

his clothes are still in his room...

which is locked by your orders.

I think the time's come

for a showdown, Doctor.

Perhaps you're right, Erik. Come with me.

- May I have a word with you?

- Yes, sir.

It is imperative that we see the patient.

What is his condition?

His recuperative powers

have proved tremendous.

He appears to have complete control

of all his faculties.

Why did you deny that you were concealing

the monster, Doctor?

It was necessary for a while.

You see, Erik, the monster, as you know,

was a homicidal maniac.

He killed Dr. Kettering,

but Dr. Kettering lives again.

His brain is now inside

the skull of the monster.

I have replaced an evil brain
