Frankenstein’s Laboratory

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Discover the frightening truth of Frankenstein’s Monster in our immersive object theater.

Mary Shelley’s novel, Frankenstein, is widely considered the first science fiction novel. The story raises the question of what happens if we go too far in experimentation without considering the consequences? Just because we can create new technologies, should we?

This 10-minute show brings Frankenstein to life, telling the tale of a mad scientist haunted by his creation.

Please note: This exhibit may be frightening for children under 9 years old.
