Frankenstein

Frankenstein was a novel written by Mary Shelley. It was published in 1818, and a film version was later released.

Inspiration for the novel
In June 1816, Shelley met the Thirteenth Doctor while staying at Villa Diodati by Lake Geneva. The Doctor specifically instructed her companions, Graham, Ryan and Yaz, not to mention Frankenstein, or otherwise affect its inception. (TV: The Haunting of Villa Diodati)

In 1816, Shelley encountered the Eighth Doctor and witnessed him apparently coming back to life after being dead, providing inspiration for her book. (AUDIO: Mary's Story) Shelley later became the Doctor's companion. (AUDIO: The Silver Turk)

Also in 1816, Shelley encountered the Tenth Doctor later in his timeline as Zzazik, an alien creature wrapped in bandages, was absorbing bolts of energy. This sight provided Shelley with inspiration for a scene in Frankenstein. (COMIC: The Creative Spark)

In 1996, an android version of Frankenstein's monster was part of an attraction at the Festival of Ghana. (TV: The Chase)

On 31 December 1999, Pete watched the film adaptation Frankenstein while the Seventh Doctor regenerated in his morgue. After regenerating, the Eighth Doctor was startled by the monster on Pete's television. (TV: Doctor Who)

In 3278, a Reprise of Victor Frankenstein, a character in the novel, lived on Europa. (PROSE: Managra)

Behind the scenes

 * In the television story The Haunting of Villa Diodati, Mary Shelley wonders whether Ashad, the Lone Cyberman, is a composite of multiple men and refers to his creators as a "Modern Prometheus". As witnessed by the Thirteenth Doctor, he also recharges via a lightning strike. Though not stated in the episode, these elements would all be incorporated into Shelley's novel: The monster is created from body parts of different men and is implied to have been brought to life via electricity, and the novel's full title is Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.
 * The novel has influenced many Doctor Who stories, most notably The Brain of Morbius.
 * Peter Cushing, who also played Dr. Who, a version of the Doctor in two films, had also, famously, portrayed Baron Frankenstein in six films. He would have played the similar character of Mehendri Solon, except for cost considerations.
 * The script of Deep Breath alluded to Frankenstein twice; firstly, the Half-Face Man was described as having "Frankenstein style stitch marks round the wrists" and, secondly, the SS Marie Antoinette's escape pod was referred to as having been covered with stitched-together human skin "like Frankenstein skin!"
