The debate over Frankenstein's creature being human is an ongoing discussion, but it is really based on the person perspective on the actions that he took. In my opinion, the creature is like any other human with the same emotions, making mistakes, and realizing them. Although there might have been things that may seem not human, but relating to these days, there has been unfortunate killings by many people.

The only reason why the man did not run away was because he did not see his outward appearance, otherwise, he would've ran out of there the moment they laid their eyes on him like the rest of the characters in the book. If all the people were blind, they could see the generous creation that could have come their way, but they decided to judge a book by its cover and never got to see the full potential of use that he could have brought.
