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.
What is the story behind the creation of the novel Frankenstein?
Shelley travelled through Europe in 1814, journeying along the River Rhine in Germany with a stop in Gernsheimwhich is just 17 km (10 mi) away from Frankenstein Castle, where, two centuries before, an alchemist was engaged in experiments. Later, she travelled in the region of Geneva and the topic of galvanism and other similar occult ideas were themes of conversation among her companions, particularly her lover and future husband, Percy Shelley. Mary, Percy, Lord Byron and John Polidori decided to have a competition to see who could write the best horror story. After thinking for days, Shelley dreamt about a scientist who created life and was horrified by what he had made; her dream later evolved into the novel's story.

When was the book 'Frankenstein' set?
The setting of the novel ranges all over Europe, emphasizing places with which Shelley herself was familiar: Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France, England, Scotland, Ireland, and even the Arctic. The tale begins and ends in the Arctic with the explorer Robert Walton seeking a northwest passage. On his journey he first meets Victor Frankenstein and then the monster himself. The arctic atmosphere itself is a fitting symbol for the scientific enterprise on which Frankenstein has embarked and Walton is embarking. The landscape is barren and white: it is human beings who turn the landscape and scientific creation into colorful creation or black horror. As Dr. Frankenstein lies dying, he recounts his history to Walton. When he speaks of his home in Geneva by a blue lake and snowy mountains, his description is filled with warmth, light, and love. At age seventeen Frankenstein became a student at the University of Ingolstadt, in upper Bavaria, where he later creates his monster. Frankenstein recoils from his creation, and the monster flees. The rest of the novel follows the theme of pursuit and thus ranges over Europe. Frankenstein has a nervous breakdown and returns to the peacefulness of home. To cure his despair, he wanders on one occasion to the valley of Chamounix. Here, he meets the monster again. Shelley's descriptive powers heighten whenever she presents the monster against a background of sublime and terrifying nature. Frankenstein is mountain climbing across a "troubled sea" of ice (prophetic of the setting at the end of the novel) when the monster bounds toward him over the ice crevices. As the monster tells of his adventures since his creation, the scene shifts to Germany and the humble cottage of the De Laceys, whom the monster has watched to learn how people act and talk. After promising to make a mate for the monster, Frankenstein plans a trip to England with his friend Clerval. On their way they travel leisurely on the Rhine. From London they travel north to Edinburgh, where they separate. All the time the monster has been following them. Frankenstein goes to a remote Orkney Island to create his female monster. In desolate surroundings the monster again appears and vows revenge when Frankenstein destroys the female creature. Frankenstein goes sailing to get rid of the female body parts, and his boat is blown off course to Ireland. There he is accused of his friend Clerval's murder and is thrown into prison, where he again has a mental collapse. Released into his father's custody, he returns to Geneva, but this time the powers of home fail to heal. The monster takes his complete revenge, and Frankenstein vows to follow him until he can rid the world of the fiend he has created. The pursued becomes the pursuer.
