About this listen
Test Tube Frankenstein, a short horror story by Wayne Robbins appeared in the May 1940 issue of Terror Tales. It is interesting to draw connections between this pulp story and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Both stories involve a mad genius creating a creature that deceives and kills those around them. However, in this short story, the creature takes on the form and demeanor of its creator, Chester Vermis, which differentiates it from Frankenstein. Additionally, the protagonist Mortimer can be compared to both Henry Clerval and Victor Frankenstein. Like Henry, Mortimer is concerned for his friend's madness, but like Victor, he puts his loved ones at risk in his pursuit of the creature. Despite escaping the creature, Mortimer will always wonder if he truly succeeded.
