Monster Creation

Passion is a key element to romanticism. Victor shows passion for his creation because he doesn't keep in touch with any of his friends or family. He created a monster and his creation caused him to be completely isolated from the rest of society. However, after Victor's creation, he becomes surprised. So surprised that it turns into horror. He is mortified by what he created and he is no longer passionate for his creation. His passion has now turned into hatred instead. Victor is upset because all of those months of hard work have not actually paid off. He is greatly disappointed in himself.
