Monsters are egocentric, callous, superfluous, and their actions are destructive. Often what makes someone a monster isn’t just what they have done directly to others but it is their careless and reckless actions that cause those around them to suffer. Most monsters are so self-absorbed by their own agenda and desires that they don’t consider the consequences of their actions.

    They wrongly treat the monster on the assumption he in fact he is one. This is not justified by anything except his demeanor. William Frankenstein is a perfect reflection of society’s judgement to differences. The monster approaches the boy, not to harm him, but desperate to form some sort of human relationship, which leads him to a ‘naïve, innocent’ and probably too young “to have imbibed a horror of deformity," (Shelley 136) child. William however, refers to him as a “monster!…
