Baron Victor Frankenstein, having survived the fire at the end of the previous film, is housed at an insane asylum where he has been made a surgeon and given a number of privileges, as he holds secret information on Adolf Klauss, the asylum's corrupt and perverted director. Frankenstein, under the alias of Dr. Carl Victor, uses his position to continue his experiments in the creation of man.
When Simon Helder, a young doctor and an admirer of Frankenstein's work, arrives as an inmate for the crime of ‘sorcery’ bodysnatching, the Baron is impressed by Helder's talents and takes him under his wing as an apprentice. Together they work on the design for a new creature. Unknown to Simon, however, Frankenstein is acquiring body parts by murdering his patients.
