Our story is set in the small village of Frankenstein, in the German region of Pfalz. A hapless young man runs out of gas, which unfortunate accident leads him to the heart of this village. Is it the late hour, between the dog and wolf, or his arrival which is the cause of the strange events in which he is to participate? The fact remains that it is thanks to the benevolence of a young and pretty woman that he succeeds in the early morning to leave the accursed place. Nevertheless, since his short stay in the village of Frankenstein, not a soul has seen the young man again.
