House of Frankenstein (miniseries)

House of Frankenstein is a two-part American television miniseries that aired on NBC in 1997. It stars Adrian Pasdar as Detective Vernon Coyle, who is investigating a series of bizarre murders in New Orleans. The crimes are linked to a secret society obsessed with the legend of Frankenstein and his monster.

The miniseries also features Teri Polo as Grace, a woman who becomes entangled in Coyle's investigation, and Greg Wise as Dr. Crispian Grimes, a scientist who may hold the key to understanding the strange events unfolding. The story draws inspiration from Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein but updates the themes and setting for a contemporary audience. It explores themes of obsession, genetic manipulation, and the consequences of playing God.

While the title suggests a focus solely on Frankenstein's monster, the miniseries incorporates elements from other classic horror stories and features a variety of genetically engineered creatures. It received mixed reviews upon its release, with some critics praising its suspenseful atmosphere and special effects, while others found the plot convoluted and the acting uneven.
