After killing Frankenstein's younger brother, William, the monster forces Frankenstein to make him a bride. When Victor breaks his promise, the monster kills his friend, Clerval, and then Victor's wife, Elizabeth.
Out of revenge, Frankenstein follows the monster north. It is here that he runs into Walton and his expedition. After telling the crew this unbelievable story, he dies.
The monster comes to pay his last respects and tells Walton that he intends on killing himself by setting himself on fire. In the end, Walton turns his expedition back, partially due to the story's moral: some scientific advancements are not worth the cost.
