Chapter 3
Victor begins to worry that once his makes the female creation, the two creatures will not seclude themselves from society and instead will create 'a race of devils'. Whilst worrying about this, Victor sees the creature looking into the window and grinning. Horrified by the creatures hideousness, Victors abandons his work creating a female for the creature. The creature becomes enfuriated and promises revenge, and that he will be with Victor on his wedding night. The next day Victor recieves a letter from Henry who suggests they continue their travels. Victor packs his things and leaves the hut, throwing the remains of the female creature into the river as he sails back to the mainland. He falls asleep and when he wakes up realises that the winds will not allow him to reach the shore. Victor fears for his life, but luckily the winds change and he is able to reach shore safely. When he steps off the boat the towspeople accuse him of a murder discovered the previous night.
