A riverside tavern proves eventful for clandestine deals to be made but gossip overheard forces a local baron of ill repute to cover his tracks; and these misdeeds sending the town into a mutinous uproar.

Meanwhile, an old gypsy returns from her travels with a prophecy, and with talk of vampires and werewolves roaming the night, Professor Krempe falls victim to an unknown assailant. Is Frankenstein already too far damned to take up this opportunity presented?
