| - The film opens with townspeople discussing a 'curse' with the Frankenstein town council, in a continuation after the events of Son of Frankenstein (1939). Locals report that Ygor has survived. The council tells the citizens to do as they wish with the Frankenstein castle; the mob's response is to destroy it. Damaged caused to the structure uncovers the still-living monster from dried sulfur pits. Ygor takes the monster to Dr. Ludwig Frankenstein, who heals mental disease. Ygor threatens Ludwig with exposure if he refuses to heal the monster. Elsa discovers the diary of her grandfather, Baron Frankenstein; as she reads, scenes from the 1931 James Whale Frankenstein film are shown. Ygor and the monster break into Ludwig's estate, murdering Dr. Kettering in the process. Ludwig considers destroying the monster completely through dissection in a reversal of his father's creation process, but Dr. Bohmer objects that this is murder. The ghost of Ludwig's father, Baron Frankenstein appears demanding Ludwig heal his creation instead of killing it. Ludwig decides to replace the monster's criminal brain with that of the morally 'good' Dr. Kettering. Ygor convinces Dr. Bohmer to secretly replace the monster's brain with his own, which Bohmer does an act of professional revenge. Ygor speaks in the monster's body, but quickly becomes blind. Ludwig observes that this is due to a mismatch in blood type between Ygor's brain and the monster's body. An angry mob searching for a missing young girl begin a fire in the estate. The monster's face is shown being consumed by fire; the film ends with Elsa Frankenstein in the arms of Erik Ernst as they walk into the sunset away from the Frankenstein mansion.
