Prior to his decision to create the monster, Victor had been warned previously by his father and later by his professor. They both wondered why he wasted his time reading and researching about useless information. However, Victor became interested with the creation of life, science and the supernatural. He learned much later that his pursuit with regards to the creation of life was beyond his nature. He had acquired the knowledge to restore animation by bestowing life to a lifeless body.


Victor did not consider the nature of his creation, he assumed that his creation would be good and would pave the way for further research in the science of creation that he had developed. Victor had not established the methods of controlling his creation which forced him to run away when he first saw it move.


In summary, Victor knew he was creating an abomination, something he was not supposed to do. This knowledge did not stop his pursuits, instead he justified his reasons and went ahead to commit a mistake that would haunt him for the rest of his life.
