The scene opens with a look up the street, it's dark and mysterious, when lightening strikes, the houses are outlined, in particular one tall and disjointed house.
The camera moves in closer towards this house, small details can be depicted through an old flickering street lamp.
The door creaks open and then a bell rings, the camera moves into the house, and from the small outside street lamp, there are vague shadows and silhouettes around the room.
There are hammering and sawing sounds coming from upstairs and the faint sound of a wind chime.
The camera moves up the stairs, the odd step here and there creaking, moving on into the second floor room where there is even less light. Implements and tools can be picked out by their shadows.
As the camera pans around there a oddly shaped packages, boxes and crates, a boiler in the corner making strange sounds, the ceiling is dripping and forming a puddle in the centre of the room.
There is a gust of wind and the wind chime can be heard once again, the camera turns to look at window open and the wind chime hanging next to it. Lightening strikes again.
Then the sounds of the hammering and sawing again, although this time there's bubbling and smoke starts to drift its way down the stairs.
The camera turns around and carries on up the stairs, going through the smoke. Sounds of cackling can now be heard and the sounds of hammering and sawing get louder.
Finally at the top floor lightening goes again and outlines a crazy doctor holding up a tool in one hand and laughing, other tools and implements can be depicted around the room.
The camera cuts to the table where there is Frankenstein lying down flat eyes closed, bits and bobs lying around him.
There is no interaction between the doctor or Frankenstein but you can tell that he is working on creating him.
As the scene draws to a close the nights becomes darker and darker, the doctor draws closer to Frankenstein and as it climaxes everything goes black. Day dawns quickly and the camera moves backwards to show the doctor, who in fact is a
toy maker, he holds up Frankenstein which is now clearly a toy, pleased with his work he smiles and the light shines on him and the toy.
The camera follows him as he runs down the stairs, as he goes down the floors we start to realise his that what seemed to be sinister objects and implements are actually toy makers
tools or toys.
He enters the bottom room now filled with toys and places the toy Frankenstein on a shelf, the door bell goes and children start to enter the shop. The camera pans out of the shop window and onto the street which is now clearly a normal happy town street.
The end
