"I believe in monsters." " Do you?" " What might I do for you?" "We have continued use of a man of your skills." "Your kind of man." "One of great violence and hidden depths." "Dr. Frankenstein." "You seem to be a free thinker who might imagine a world where science and superstition walk hand in hand." "Your first-born has returned." "Did you think I wouldn't find you?" " I'm Ethan Chandler." " Brona Croft." "[COUGHING]" "ETHAN:" "She has consumption." "Best you didn't kiss me anymore." "Keep a safe distance." "May I present the renowned Madame Kali." "There's another here." "[SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" "ETHAN:" "What's wrong with her?" " She's been possessed by the devil." "This is a spell foretelling the annihilation of man and the coming of the beast." " Why, it's Madame Kali, is it not?" " It's actually Evelyn Poole." " Preferable." " Ha, ha, ha!" "So how's your friend, Miss Ives?" "ETHAN:" "Vanessa!" "Please!" "You don't know what it's like having this thing inside me." "An animal scratching to get out." "ETHAN:" "There are things you can't control." "At the end of the day, the only thing we have is the people we trust." " Mina?" " Father." "[SHRIEKS]" " I am your daughter!" " I already have a daughter." " What do you want from me?" " I think a companion." "You will make me an immortal mate." "VICTOR:" "No more let life divide what death can join together."

"[ETHAN GROWLS THEN ROPER GASPS]" "There's a moment..." "A moment you realise you are no longer the hunter, you are the prey." "If you have been touched by the demon it's like being touched by the backhand of God." "It makes you sacred in a way." "VANESSA:" "There are things within us all that can never be unleashed."

"Before I hurt you or anyone here, I need to get away." "Where will you go?" "Spain maybe." "Or Russia." "Find a war somewhere, join a side." "Do what I'm good at." "And the war here?" "Mina is dead." "The creature is dead." "We lost." "That was only a battle." "Do you think the dark forces that converge on our heads can be vanquished so easily?" "Do you honestly believe you can escape them?" "And the other ones?" "The ones inside us?" "Inside me, you mean?" "No, that's not what I mean." "There are times that I have..." "Well, like these blackouts." "Times I can't remember." "What happens?" "I don't know." "But there's usually blood." "How can I help?" "You can't change what you are." "No matter who you save."

"I need to be looking for work." "Not a simple thing in this steel-hearted city of yours." "But have no doubt that I will never be far from you." "Wait." "If this works if I do as I promised you give you this thing, living will you leave me in peace?" "You would do better to ask your soul to leave you." "We are bound on a wheel of pain, thee and me." "I ask you what is Dr. Frankenstein without his creature?" "[♪♪♪]" "Don't let her out of your sight." "What were they?" "Women." "I don't know." "Like the others?" "Those with the creature we killed." "Not by a long shot." "Miss Ives..." "Vanessa can you speak to me?" "Mr. Chandler." "Can I do anything for you?" "You knew them?" " Yes." " What are they?" "How can I help you if you won't let me?" "You can't help." "You were going to leave, so go." "For chrissake, they were trying to kill you." "If they were trying to kill me, they would have."

"I find it familiar." "I'll be honest with you, friend." "We're not the most financially sound institution in London." "As you can tell, the patronage is thin to nonexistent." "We can't pay you much." "What's the job?" "In an effort to compete with the dreaded Madame Tussauds I'm instituting a new bit of gimmickry." "Intended to send those trumped-up French bastards back to Paris." "This way." "My chambers of crime." "Homicide scenes plucked from the headlines and recreated here in the most minute detail." "Here's old Jack himself." "The Annie Chapman murder." "What we couldn't discover, we invented, of course." "No one will know the difference." "You tell the public a thing is real, it is." "I'm preparing a series of them." "With all the ballyhoo I can muster." "I need help with the construction and the tableaus along with the usual custodial work throughout the museum." "It's thankless work in dark rooms but it's honest." "What do you think?" "Yes." "Heh." "Well, before we get you all signed and sealed you'll have to meet the rest of the Putneys." "We're a family concern, you understand and I'm beholden on their approval." "You mean the way I look?" "I meant more the way you are." "Can you come back this evening?" "Say, 7?" "Yes." "Very good." "We'll let them try you on for size." "Especially me good lady wife." "She who holds the pocketbook." "[PUTNEY CHUCKLES]" "Here, look at this." "My newest crime."

"More brick." "There will be no wood left in the city before long." "Brick lasts longer." "But without character." "Wood holds its history." "You'll forgive me for asking, but, uh, this is like Spitalfields, eh?" "The Ripper back again." "You think so?" "Reckon it must be." "Why?" "Can there be two monsters like that in our city?" "This one is different." "This time there was a survivor." "She didn't leave her room." "All day?" "All day." "This is something I never thought I'd see." "What?" "Here's a woman who faced down that creature in the theatre without blinking and held her ground against Satan himself, but now..." "I've never seen her frightened." "[METAL CLANGS]" "What will you make of this life, I wonder?" "I'll miss talking to you." "It's good to have someone to talk to." "You'll learn that soon enough." "You'll learn everything."

"Come and meet the new man we've hired, Mr. Clare." "Miss Putney." "Mr. Clare." "May I touch your face?" "It is not a face for touching." "Then I will never meet you." "Please." "If you must." "[♪♪♪]" "It is good to meet you, Mr. Clare." "Would you show Mr. Clare out, dear?" "This way, sir." "That face." "What in God's name are you thinking?" "He'll scare away the few customers we have."

"No, Sir Malcolm these were not the creatures we faced before." "Not as steady as I would like." "Thank you, doctor." "VICTOR:" "Just rest." "You've been through a lot." "Just rest." "And did you know the language they spoke?" " It was Latin." "VANESSA:" "No." "It was the verbis diablo." "If I remember my theological studies correctly that's quite impossible." " What is it?" "A mythical language." "No, a dead language." "The word of the devil." "VICTOR:" "According to biblical law the verbis diablo is a corruption of angelical speech." "What Adam spoke in paradise before the serpent made his memorable appearance." "ETHAN:" "The story goes Satan took God's language and turned it inside out." "After the fall of man, God spoke to Adam but Adam could no longer understand him." ""Why is my language unclear to thee?"" ""Because you now belong to your father, the devil."" "You do know this is all myth." " Those women weren't." " I don't know what you saw but I doubt they're figments conjured from Galilean fantasies speaking a dead language." "Vanessa, did you know the words she said to you?" "No." "I don't remember much." "The words came to me blindly, like an animal instinct." "I don't even know what I said." " Whatever it was scared them off." " Then should we not begin by finding a way to understand the language?" "Begin what?" "Whatever is required to protect Miss Ives." "VICTOR:" "And what are we protecting her from?" "You can't help me." "This is a battle I must fight on my own." " I'm not leaving you." " Mr. Chandler..." "Vanessa I lost one daughter." "I'm not prepared to lose another-." "Not for anything in this world." "Altogether we've seen things not of this world and have proven ourselves capable of defeating them." "What were they?"
