HORROR MOVIE SYNOPSIS

Son of Frankenstein

Wolf Frankenstein (Dr. Frankenstein's son played by Basil Rathbone) returns to his father's estate with the wife Elsa von Frankenstein (played by Josephine Hutchinson) in Son of Frankenstein. He then continues his father's research and reanimates Frankenstein's monster (Boris Karloff) with the help of his assistant Ygor (Bela Lugosi).

HORROR TRIVIA

- The Son of Frankenstein is the only movie in the Frankenstein series that takes place in the town of Frankenstein.

- The make-up and costume were so involved for Frankenstein's Monster that it took Jack P. Pierce about 4 hours to transform Boris Karloff into the Monster for the Son of Frankenstein.
