Frankenstein (フランケンシュタイン, Furankenshutain) was a creature created originally by Victor Frankenstein who was able to bring the creature of his own making to life, only for it to bring about his death. He was killed in a burning windmill, although, according to Toho Studios, his heart remained alive and was shipped to Japan, where it regenerated a body for itself and terrorized the countryside and later faced off against Baragon.
History
Towards the end of World War II, Hitler’s Nazis captured and shipped the still living heart of the Frankenstein monster to their ally, Japan, in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Allied forces. Unfortunately, the heart was taken to a Hiroshima laboratory for study and was lost and seemingly destroyed when the United States dropped the atomic bomb on the city. However, ten years later, a wild boy was discovered near the ruins of Hiroshima, where scientists eventually captured and studied him, discovering that the lost heart of Frankenstein had actually regenerated a body for itself, this boy! Frankenstein was well fed by the scientists, and in response to the protein-rich food, began to grow incredibly fast, reaching a height of 20 meters in no time, forcing the scientists to incarcerate him in a cell. However, Frankenstein managed to escape his prison, his hand actually snapping off when his chains became too tight. Frankenstein then fled to the Japanese countryside, sending all of Japan into a panic and being blamed for the disappearance of both livestock and people. It was later discovered that the people had been eaten, but not by Frankenstein, they were devoured by a new, burrowing kaiju named Baragon, who had eluded detection for quite sometime. However, when the burrowing kaiju attacked one of the scientists who cared for Frankenstein, the human-like monster attacked him. A vicious battle ensued, ending when Frankenstein apparently killed Baragon by breaking his neck, but he didn’t have long to savor the victory, for the ground underneath him, which was already weakened by Baragon's burrowing, gave way and sent Frankenstein into the bowels of the Earth. Due to his incredible regenerative ability, it has been suggested he was trapped forever in constant pain.
