Frankenstein...P2

So I'm starting to understand what's going on in the story. I compared it from my script. Victor is actually telling us his experiences and thoughts in the book, rather than dialogue. So, In the book, Victor's mother has died, and his fiancee, Elizabeth is on the verge of dying.

Obsessed with life and death, Victor goes grave digging. Then he goes home, falls asleep, and has a nightmare. It was about him kissing Elizabeth, and then seeing her features change. At last, he's left with the corpse of his dead mother in his arms.I can imagine what he's saying, and it looks so dark, and ominous.

The next night, there's a lightning storm. Victor, his adopted brother and best friend, Henry Clerval, and his few manservants set up the corpse in a laboratory. Then they create a monster. Victor immediately hates his creation, because it's hideous.
