Count Dracula would best fit into the time period before Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein". This was because the time period was very dark, medieval, and simply perfect for the creatures of the night to roam.


What does the narrator have in common with Victor Frankenstein?

Hammond and Frankenstein both attempt to play God and create a living being(s). Frankenstein reanimates a corpse and Hammond recreates dinosaurs, two things that were once dead. In both cases, something goes wrong. The dinosaurs escape from their pens and fences and terrorize those on the island while Frankenstein's creation ends up a killer (though unintentionally) and the townspeople hunt it down before it kills anyone else. Neither John nor Victor wants their creations to be killed if they can prevent it. Oh, and the monster-creation scene in Frankenstein (1931) happens during a storm, much like the Tyrannosaurus break-out scene in Jurassic Park (1993).

God making man was a creation; victor's monster was an invention--he invented life out of pre-existing pieces rather than creating it Childbirth? No. Come on. He was made not born. I disagree. The human body had been around for a few thousand years before Frankenstein thought about making one. So its not an invention. He created it.
