Prologue
I believe, they sailed where no one else sailed before, obviously,they got stuck in the ice. Then they started to here two strange voices. The sailors thought there were ghosts. One voice was shouting and screaming in pain( Frankenstein, the mad scientist). The other one was howling in revenge (the monster I think)
Then, they saw the man sceaming in pain, fall off the sledge. Captain Walton and his crew went and rescued him.
The man on the sledge was huge and hideous, I think he is the monster and he is the one who is howling in revenge because he Is suffering, he is ugly and lonely.
Act 1
Frankenstein needed a lightning storm to create that monster and finally the Lightning strikes.
The monster is born, Frankenstein sees him and he is really scared by his invention and he runs out of the room.
The monster has scaped and runs away.
