What is the name of the disease or condition that is known as Frankenstein Syndrome?

Frankenstein Syndrome is not a disease or condition. More than anything it is a somewhat irrational fear. The terms is literary in its origin, and comes down as a result of the Mary Shelly horror story, Frankenstein: or The ModernPrometheus. Shelly tells the story of Doctor Frankenstein, a scientist who is searching for the secret to life and whose experiments lead to the construction of The Monster (Frankestein is the doctor who builds it), later depictions of the story show Frankenstein doing this from the disparate parts of several cadavers, but Shelly never discusses how the doctor accomplishes this. In the story, the Monster, driven by alienation and betrayal, murders the friend of Frankenstein, Henry Clerval, Victor's new bride Elizabeth, and perhaps earlier Victor's brother William.The obvious moral of the story here is that if you build a monster, it will become what you build. The whole story becomes a common theme in Science Fiction, and is repeated time and time again from the publishing of Mary Shelly's little tale. Essentially, we fear what we do not know, and what we may do with that in our ignorance. One of the best modern examples of Frankenstein Syndrome is the Terminator movies. Skynet is a construction of man, once brought to life, it takes on a life of its own and systematically begins destroying its creator.
