The owner of a Transylvanian wax museum named Vandoom sets out to build a new monster in order to bring customers back to the museum. A lightning bolt brings the creature to life, but despite the fearful attacks of the villagers, it is not hostile and does not strike back.

The old man will not be denied, and pulls a gun firing a shot that wings the owner as he attempts to flee with the crystal. The old man mocks the fool as weak, since he has had years to think of wishes that could not possibly turn against him, he wishes to be twenty years old, a long life, freedom from imprisonment, and to be the richest man in the world.
