Frankenstein
What if the spark of life you ignited turned into a nightmare you couldn’t control? In Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but tormented scientist, shatters the boundaries of nature to breathe life into his darkest ambition—only to unleash a haunting force that mirrors humanity’s deepest fears. As obsession twists into terror and creation confronts creator, one question remains: Is the true monster born of flesh… or the ruin of a soul that dared to play God?

The Picture of Dorian Gray
What if your reflection held all your sins while you stayed forever young? In Oscar Wilde’s tale of gothic horror, the dazzling Dorian Gray trades his soul for ageless beauty, his portrait decaying with every indulgence as he remains untouched by time. But as hedonism spirals into horror and the canvas whispers his darkest truths, one question remains: when the final brushstroke falls, will salvation—or damnation—stare back?
