Description:
This is the Turkish first edition of Le Sceau de Frankenstein, published under the title Ölüm Şatosu by Beyaz Balina Yayınları in 2000. Written by Benoît Becker, the novel is a gothic horror story inspired by the Frankenstein mythos, blending mystery, science fiction elements, and classic castle-set terror.
The story unfolds around a dark and isolated castle where disturbing experiments and hidden secrets begin to surface. As events progress, the narrative explores themes of forbidden science, human ambition, and the consequences of playing with nature. The atmosphere is built on suspense, fear, and the gradual revelation of a chilling truth tied to the “seal of Frankenstein.”
Benoît Becker’s work reflects mid-20th-century European horror traditions, where gothic settings and scientific curiosity often lead to tragic outcomes. The novel carries strong elements of mystery and psychological tension.
For collectors, this 2000 Turkish first edition is particularly notable due to its strictly limited print run of 1100 copies. Published by Beyaz Balina Yayınları, it is a scarce modern collectible, especially for readers interested in gothic horror and Frankenstein-inspired literature. Its limited edition status significantly increases its collectible value.
