The movie begins with the Baron Wolf von Frankenstein, son of the late Dr. Frankenstein, returning to his ancestral home in the Black Forest of Transylvania. He is accompanied by his wife, Elsa, and his young son, Peter. Wolf is determined to restore his father’s legacy and prove that his father’s work was not in vain.
Upon his arrival, Wolf is met with suspicion and hostility from the locals who still remember the horrors that his father’s work caused. Wolf is determined to prove his worth and rebuild his father’s castle.
