Grimm's Tales:
A Book at Bedtime

A tribute to the Masters of Horror; Boris Karloff, James Whale, the Universal Horrors of the 1930's & the Germanic Tradition

We owe so much to these films, and this tribute sprang from a dream which haunted Glenn, where Henry Frankenstein was reading the Brothers Grimm to his Creature. 

The Grimm's gothic tales foreshadowed so much that followed and I like the thought of it masking Whale's love of German Expressionism.

I could see Whale staging a scene like this on his set.  If the Baron had cared for the creature the story would have ended very differently, but we wouldn't have those films.
