The film is based on the book Frankenstein's Aunt but there are many changes. Similar to the book aunt Hannah comes to Frankenstein but at first rather with the aim to find a bride for her nephew so that little Frankensteins comes in the family. But he is too busy for something like that. He tries to create a man with the power of a machine and the brain of a genius. Aunt Hannah meets here diffent to the novel more spooks like a merman, a fire spirit and a White Lady and the orphan Max, who is running away from a circus.
