Monstrous error 2

MONSTROUS ERROR 2

A descendant of Victor Frankenstein is in trouble with the police.

He's been trying for years to do what his ancestor failed to do - create a handsome, kind, obedient and useful creature from dead human body parts. But no matter what he does, every time he ends up with an ugly, foul-mouthed, violent monster that cannot be allowed out into the world, so he is forced to destroy it. Not easy, as the creatures are always far stronger than their creator, and he had to find a ruse to lure them to their death

He takes them all the way to top of his castle, perched in the mountains, and encourages the creature to look out from the battlements over the world it is about to conquer. But Frankenstein has placed a trap-door in the roof which opens under the creature's weight, sending it crashing to its death on the rocks below.

Recently, believing he had finally solved all the problems with his latest creation, he invited several of his peers, including a pioneering lady scientist he was hoping to impress with his work, to the unveiling of the creature.

Unfortunately this one proved to be the worst of all, and had to be restrained by Frankenstein and five other men from attacking the lady, all the while screaming the filthiest, most abusive language at her and her fellow scientists.

After much struggling, they got the creature into a strait-jacket and chains and as soon as Frankenstein had ushered out his guests he gave the monster a huge shot of tranquiliser and led it up to the roof and over the trap-door, where it fell 300 feet to its death, like all its predecessors.

Unfortunately for Frankestein, the visiting scientists were still nearby discussing what they had seen, and despite all that had happened they felt sorry for the poor, unnatural creature. So when they heard a scream and saw a huge body crashing down the mountain, with Frankenstein looking over the parapet at it, they were enraged at his cruelty and decided to call the police.

Later that day Frankenstein answered a knock at the castle door and found two police officers. One said, "Dr Frankenstein?"

"Yes," replied the scientist.

"I'm arresting you for making an obscene clone fall."
