Although, the female version of The Wretch was never fully created, this idea that monsters roaming the world freely can cause chaos and creating a curse onto the world is what ceased the second creation from happening: “Sympathies for which the demon thirsted would be children, and a race of devils would be propagated upon earth” (Shelley 119). Frankenstein knows that by creating a female monster, their procreation of a demon race will bring hell on earth, suggesting that procreating is a sin. The Wretch, just like Eve, try to procreate knowing that it is wrong to do so. According to Peter Brooks in “What Is a Monster?”, this sin is what connects The Wretch with Eve: “Like Eve, disobey the paternal injunction, which in this case stipulates exile from the inhabited parts of the globe” (Brooks 380). Eve ate from the Forbidden Tree that Satan had persuaded her to do so, by doing this Adam and Eve had sex and this was the very first sin. This caused Eve and Adam to leave the Garden of Eden (their world), therefore proving that Eve is a “fallen angel” just like The Wretch was when he wanted a female version of him to procreate
