In this electrifying Halloween episode, we resurrect The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), the brilliant sequel that’s often hailed as the crowning jewel of classic horror cinema. Prepare to explore the fascinating history of this bold follow-up, where director James Whale and Boris Karloff returned to expand on the tale of Frankenstein’s monster—but this time, he’s not alone. The sequel brings new life (literally) with the creation of the iconic Bride, played by Elsa Lanchester in a brief yet unforgettable role.
