It was on a dreary night
of November

that I beheld the accomplishment
of my toils.

With an anxiety
that almost amounted to agony,

I collected the instruments
of life around me

that I might infuse a spark
of being into the lifeless thing

that lay at my feet.

It was already 1:00
in the morning.

The rain pattered dismally
against the panes.

My candle was
nearly burned out when,

by the glimmer
of the half-extinguished light,

I saw the dull, yellow eye
of the creature open.

Ah!

Matthew!

I couldn't help it.

He looked so scared.

- I was not scared.
- Were too.

Frankenstein's supposed
to be scary.

It's a monster story.

Well, it's more
than a monster story.

It explores the wonder
of medical science --

the possibility
of building life from death.

But why would anyone
want to make a person

out of dead body parts anyway?

A doctor might.

Do you think
you could build a person, Ma?

Well, the question really
is whether it would be ethical.

What's that?

Whether it would be right
to do so.

But could you do it?

With some time,
Brian, who knows?

Maybe -- maybe that's
Frankenstein's monster

that's been prowling around
in the woods out there.

Well, I highly doubt that.

Hank said something's been
eating the animals

out of his traps --
bones and all.

Mr. Bray said he saw
footprints near the creek

twice the size
of a grizzly bear.

Well, perhaps it's someone
playing a Halloween prank.

You really think there's
a monster out there, Sully?

Oh, I don't know
if it's a monster or not,

but something's been taking
those animals out of the traps.

That's for sure.

Well, I don't know why I bother
reading to any of you at all.

Clearly the town's gossip
proves more entertaining.

But I want to hear
more of the story.

Sorry.
Time for bed.

- Not yet.
- I'm gonna go.

Good night.

- Goodbye.
- Bye, kids.

Bye.

Well, after all this talk,

I hope you'll be able
to fall asleep.

I can if you
read a little more to me.

Please, Ma.

I'm not scared of monsters.

All right.

Mm.

I'll read you something
in the monster's own words.

The more I saw the cottages,

the greater became my desire
to claim their protection

and kindness.

My heart yearned to be known
and loved.

He don't sound
like much of a monster.

Well, he was really
just a lonely man.

Why was he so lonely?

The people judged him
by the way he looked.

And they were frightened of him
because they never got to know him.

And he was really a gentle soul.

I know what I want
to be this year for Halloween.

I want to be
Frankenstein's monster.

Oh!

It's all right.
It's all right.

D-Don't be afraid.

I'm not gonna hurt ya!

I'm just gonna try
to pry that open.

But your leg's hurt real bad.

We got to get you out of there.

You got to help me, please.

You're free.

Wait, you're bleeding.
Wait!

Hey, everybody.

Hey, everybody!

Kid, what do you want?
We're in a hurry.

I found...

Where you all going?

We're going off
to hunt down that animal, that's where we're going.

What animal?

The one that's been
raiding my traps.

The one that chased the widow
Bernie through the woods.

Scared the daylights out of her.

Let's go.

I'm losing money every minute
we sit here yapping.

You better be careful.

It could be dangerous out there.

Horace, why don't you
just go on back inside

and tap on your telegraph.

So, what was it you seen
got you so fired up?

Nothing.

Let's go.

Come on.
Hyah!

Hyah, hyah!

Hyah!

Hyah, hyah!

Hey, mister?

Mr. Monster?

Please don't run.

I brought you something to eat.

Here.

There's even a piece
of Ms. Grace's blueberry pie.

Looks like your leg's
getting worse.

You got to do
something about it.

My ma's a doctor.

I bet you never heard
of a lady doctor before.

But I swear she is,
and a good one, too.

She'll help you.

It's dark.
I'm getting worried.

I'll go look for him.

- Brian!
- Sorry, everybody.

Where have you been?

You're not gonna believe this.

I've got the monster
in the barn.

No, really.
I got the monster in the barn.

- Yeah.
- He's hurt.

I told him you'd fix him.

Just as soon
as I finish my dinner.

You got to come now.

Brian.

Sit down.

I'm telling the truth, Sully.

Honest.

Well.

If you want me to come
look at a monster,

I'll come and look at a monster.

Thanks, Ma.

We'll be right back.

All right.

No, it's all right.

He's not gonna hurt us.

He's just scared.

His leg's hurt.

He was caught
in one of Hank's traps.

I promised him you'd fix him.

Colleen, please go get my bag.

Don't be frightened.

How did this happen?

He can't talk.

Looks like he was in a fire.

It's all right.

Looks like it has an infection.

I'm sorry if this hurts.

What's this about?

We're hunting for the monster.

We've got the posse
waiting down at the crossing.

Surely you don't believe
those monster stories.

Well, there's something
out there.

Why, just an hour ago, I heard
the sound of smashing glass.

I come downstairs,
and my store windows was broke.

Oh, could have been
some rowdy boys

getting ready for Halloween.

Weren't no rowdy boys.

It was a monster,
and we're gonna find him.

Don't suppose you'd care
to join us, Sully?

You could ride that horse
of Dr. Mike's.

You're always bragging
about how fast she is.

Flash is limping.

Since when?

I'll go with you.

Matthew?

They're right, Dr. Mike.

If there's something dangerous
out there.

We ought to find it.

Well, good luck.

I know he didn't break
those windows, Ma,

because he was with me.

I believe you, Brian.

Maybe if I just told Mr. Bray,
everything would be all right.

I'm afraid that's not all
they're angry about.

Did you take the animals
out of Hank's traps?

Must have needed them for food.

Then why did you do it?

Maybe he felt sorry for 'em,
the way I felt sorry for him

when I found him
with his leg caught.

I can't blame him.

The iron traps Hank uses
are cruel and unnecessary.

That's why Sully uses snares.

That's right, Brian.

Michaela, come here.

Maybe he was just trying
to do some good.

But still,
we don't know this man.

I don't think
he means any harm.

There's a posse
out there looking for him,

and they're not gonna stop.

But he needs help.

It's not just his leg.

It's his face that makes
them all believe he's a monster.

Well you can't fix that.

He seems so sad.

Yes, he does, Brian.

- How come he can't talk?
- I don't know.

There doesn't be any sign
of damage to his vocal cords.

Perhaps he was traumatized.

Shocked by something
that he went through,

and so he stopped speaking.

We got to do
something to help him.

Please?

I've been
reading about medical history.

Did you know that surgeons
used to stand by at duels,

so that if an ear or a finger
were severed by a sword,

it could be sewn back on?

The human body is remarkable.

Our skin has the ability
to grow back.

Well, when doctors
discovered this, they --

they started a new branch
of surgery called plastic.

It comes from the Greek word
meaning to change form.

For instance, rhinoplasty
is building a new nose.

It's done by borrowing skin
from the forehead.

Such procedures are experimental
and not without risk.

But if performed properly...

Look.

This woman had injuries
similar to your own.

Her operation was successful.

I'd like to perform
these procedures on you.

If you give me a chance,
I could --

I could give you a new face.

Please, let me help you.

Won't you even consider?

If only we knew
what had happened to him.

That's an unusual lantern.

Perhaps Sully
could take a look at it.

Maybe then we'd know
more about him.

Ask him if we can borrow it.

That's a nice lantern.

Mind if I borrow it?

Don't worry.

We'll bring it back.

You can trust us.

Lantern?

That's a headlight from a train.

That's what I thought.

Yep, see here?

- Six four nine?
- Yeah, it's the engine number.

They used to engrave 'em
right on the headlight.

Engineers used to take
these home with them at night.

They're made of silver.

Folks would steal 'em
right off the train.

Where'd you get it?

I come across it,

but if it's stolen,
I'd like to know.

Well, you could get Horace

to wire the railroad company
to find out.

Thank you.
Thanks, Robert E.

Come on, boy.

You ever been on a train?

I rode one all the way
to Boston and back.

Through the woods,
and over mountains,

and across rivers.

Oops.

Train wreck.

Horace printed up posters
for Jake.

They got a bounty
out on that monster.

A bounty?

Afternoon, ladies.

Hey.

Mike, can I talk to you
a minute?

Certainly, Sully.
Excuse me.

Got an answer
back from the railroad.

Union Pacific.

Engine 649.

Left Kansas City
on April 3rd, 1867,

headed for Denver...

but never arrived.

It went off a bridge --

a fiery crash.

There were no survivors.

At least that's what
everyone thought.

How terrible
it must have been for you.

There must be times
when you feel it that it

would have been more merciful
to have died with the others.

Well, I can't do anything
to help them now.

But I could help you.

You've been wandering
in the woods.

That's no way to live.

And now a bounty on your head.

Hunted for things
that you never even did.

You deserve better.

Well, if you won't do it for
yourself, then do it for others.

The operation, as I said,
is experimental,

and a success with it
would help people in the future

so they won't have
to suffer the way you have.

Why are you taking
a chance like this?

He said yes to the operations,

and this is the only place
I can do them.

And you think operating
on him's a good idea?

Well, why not?

Because he's been
through so much already.

That's why he deserves
a chance at a normal life.

But it's just a chance.

It's not a guarantee.

There's no guarantee
with any operation.

You always had faith
in me before.

I know.

I know, I'm just saying...

maybe it's best you just
leave this man in peace.

Does he look
like he's in peace?

Sully, he's in pain.

- Did he tell you that?
- I can see it in his eyes.

I want to help him.

- I know you do.
- I want to recreate him.

Create him?

What are you talking about?

You sound
like you're playing God.

No.

I'm only doing my job.

I create life every time I --

I do something as simple
as a suture

because if I didn't, the person
would bleed to death.

It's not the same.

To me, it is.

The first thing I'm going to do
is find some soft,

malleable skin on your forehead.

We're going to use
that reconstruct your nose.

Then I'll take some skin
from your leg

and, uh,
use it to repair your neck.

I'm gonna trace a pattern
on your forehead now.

After I take the flap,
I'm going to sew it back up.

It'll leave a scar,
but it won't be that noticeable.

It's just the first step.

Are you ready?

Chloroform, please.

I need you
to hold the skin taut.

- Like this?
- Yes, that's good.

I'm gonna cut the scar tissue
on his neck.

The injury is in his skin,

so I have to be careful
not to cut too deep.

We'll put in the skin graft now.

I have to be careful
to immobilize the graft

so we don't lose
the blood supply.

Oh, Loren.

Since when do you start
locking the door?

Well,
I --I wasn't expecting you.

Not expecting me?

Don't I deliver these supply
packages to you every Thursday?

I must have forgotten, then.

You'll, uh, have to excuse me.

I'm very busy at the moment.

What are you doing in there?

Um, I --

I'm doing some experiments.

Well, I'm sure
I don't understand

what kind of experiments
you could be doing to leave you

all covered in blood.

Well, there's a great deal

you don't understand
about medicine, Loren,

just as there's a great deal I
don't understand about business.

Good day.

The skin is gaining color.

It looks like the circulation
is improving.

I think the graft is taking.

It's amazing.

Here, I --I need to trim off
a few of the edges

because these parts didn't take.

Hand me, uh, forceps
and scissors, please.

She's been holed up
in that clinic for a week now.

And always burning
the midnight oil.

Why don't you go over there
and find out what she's up to.

I just might.

Then again, I got some midnight
oil of my own to burn.

Huh.

I know it looks strange
right now,

but it is coming along nicely.

The -- the nasal flap
looks very good.

In another couple of days
I'll --

I'll be able to sever it.

I'd like to let the stitches
get some air for a bit.

I'll go down and get you
some soup from Grace's.

I'll be right back.

Michaela?

Fetch Pa.

Get up there already.

Michaela?

Michaela, are you here?

Oh, Sully.

- Oh.
- What's wrong, Dorothy?

I --
I just been to the clinic.

Did you see Dr. Mike?

She wasn't there.
I went upstairs.

Now, I wasn't trying to pry.

I didn't mean to see.

I just open the door,
and there he was.

You should never have
gone in there, Dorothy.

I've been listening to
all these rumors for days now

that she's doing some kind
of crazy experiment.

I defended her.

And then to see
that dead body, laying there.

He's not dead.

What?

She's fixing him.

Fixing him?!

Whatever for?

That horrible creature.

You know Michaela.

She never gives up.

She has some hope
that she can do him some good.

Well,
why is it all a big secret?

Why is she hiding him?

I can't talk
about this any more.

The best thing
you can do is not get involved.

Just forget what you saw.

Dorothy?

Forget what you saw.

And this is the last step.

I'm gonna cut
the flap dividing the attachment

between the forehead
and the nose.

Small plate, please.

Then we'll give him some iron
and quinine to help him heal.

And then we'll just have
to wait.

Ma told me you
were having trouble sleeping.

She always reads to me
when I can't sleep.

Since it's almost Halloween,
I brought Frankenstein.

Don't worry,
I'll skip the scary parts.

This is where the monster
finds a blind man.

Because he can't see him,

the blind man
ain't scared of him.

The old man continued,
"I am poor,

but it will afford me pleasure
to be of service

to a human creature."

The monster replied,
"I thank you,

and accept your generous offer.

You raised me from the dust
by this kindness."

How come we got to meet
like this?

Because it's a secret.

We won't want Dr. Mike to see.

The light's still on in
her window over at the clinic.

Dorothy tried
to visit her yesterday.

Tell them what you saw.

Well, I'm -- I'm --
I'm not sure what I saw.

Why, you were white as a sheet

when you come out of there,
woman.

You must have seen something.

You saw that monster,
didn't you?

I don't know
that it was a monster.

I mean,
it could have been a person.

It just ain't like no person
I ever saw.

What'd it look like?

It was -- it was huge
and had a horrible face.

It looked like it was dead.

What's she doing working
on dead bodies?

Sully said she was trying
to fix it.

You talked to Sully
about this?

Well, I was just hoping
for some answers.

But he seemed like he was trying
to keep things quiet.

He goes along
with any crazy thing she does.

He always has.

Love is blind.

So the rumors are true.

Well, of course they're true.

That's how they get
to be rumors.

Trying to bring the dead back
to life.

It ain't natural.

What's she gonna do
if she does fix him?

Let him loose in our town?

Some horrible monster
made from dead parts.

Michaela, open up.

We know what you're up to,
and we're going to put a stop to it.

What are you talking about?

He's in there.

Let's get him!

This is my property.
You can't come in here.

Not if the town's in danger.

You'd best get out of the way.

We'll break down this door
if we have to.

No!

There he goes.

He's getting away!

Dr. Mike.

Come on.

They're coming.

P-Please.

They're gonna get ya.

You got to run, now.

Leave him alone.

Brian, get away from him.

No, you don't understand.

He's my friend.

How dare you do this?

He's a monster.

He's my patient.

Oh, yeah?
What's his name?

- Where did he come from?
- You don't even know.

He was in a railway accident.

He was injured,
and I'm treating him.

We heard you'd been
working with dead bodies.

Well, as you can see
he's very much alive.

Then what are you
gonna do to him?

I'm performing reconstructive
surgery on his face.

That why you got him wrapped
up like some kind of mummy?

Since when are you
so interested in medicine?

It ain't like any medicine
I know of.

Well, it's new,
Jake -- experimental.

But I don't think
I have to justify myself to you.

I'm doing my job, and you have
no right to interfere.

We got a right
if you're putting us in danger.

- Yeah.
- That's right.

We're not putting anyone
in danger.

This is a person.

He has feelings.

You should be ashamed.

It's you
who are acting like monsters.

Are you ready?

Feelings will come back
in a few months.

The sensations will start on the
outside and just move inward.

What do you think?

What's wrong?

I'm sure it'll take some getting
used to -- the change --

but...
I think you look wonderful.

I thought you might like
some nicer clothes.

Oh, I hear she's unwrapping
him today.

I wonder how he'll look.

Looks like
we're gonna find out.

Hey.

Hardly see the stitches.

I think Dr. Mike
did a great job.

She sure did.

I say we go to Grace's
and celebrate with some pie.

Sounds great, Ma.

- Let's go.
- Coming?

- Hey, where you going?
- Wait.

- Where you going?
- Wait.

- Wait, you can't just --
- Let him go.

Let him go.

You did everything
you could for him.

- Everything in your power.
- But --

You made him a man again.

And a man
makes his own decisions.

This man decided to walk away.

I owe you an apology.

Oh, Michaela,
I should have trusted you.

But I was just so worried.

I know.

And it turns out
that it was some boys from town

who were breaking the windows
and trying to scare folks.

I got something
I think you might want to see.

After you told that story
about the train wreck, well,

I thought maybe he was
pulling the wool over your eyes.

So, I did some checking.

Now I feel terrible.

It's all true.

There's an account
of the train wreck.

And it happened
just like you said.

John?

That's your name, isn't it?

You were the engineer
on that train -- driving it.

It was my fault.

No, John, It wasn't your fault.

Look, here.
It says in the newspaper.

The bridge washed out.

The people --

they trusted me to get them
where they were going safely.

You didn't break their trust.

It was an accident.
Look, here.

People make mistakes
all the time.

Doctors make mistakes.

I made the same mistake
as everyone else.

I judged you from the outside.

I thought that if I healed
your face, you'd be all right.

The real scars were inside.

I should have died
in that wreck.

But you didn't.

God is punishing me.

Why?

Because you're strong?

Because you're lucky?

For whatever reason,
you survived.

You were meant to go on.

To be alone,
for the rest of my life.

You saw how people looked at me.

Even after the operation.

I'll always be a monster
to them.

As long as you
feel like a monster inside,

you'll be seen that way.

You have to forgive yourself,
John.

The only thing
I ever trusted was the rails --

the steel beneath me.

When I drove out on that bridge

and it fell out
from under me, I...

That's why you wouldn't cross
the bridge when they chased you?

John, what holds you up,

It -- it isn't the steel
or the wood or even the earth.

What holds you up is love.

Brian.

I'd like you to meet
some of our townspeople.

Loren.

Dorothy.

Jake.

Myra and Horace.

Hank.

Grace and Robert E.

We'd like you all to meet...

John.

Happy Halloween.

Happy Halloween.
