On October 31st, 1831 the most popularized edition of Frankenstein is published following the success of a play entitled Presumption; or, the Fate of Frankenstein by Richard Brinsley Peake. The play was based on Shelley’s novel and gained a huge following. The success of this caused William Godwin, Shelley’s father to have the novel published again, with him making some edits. This version was published by Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley. Changes were made from the 1818 text to get rid of some of the vulgar and radical parts of the novel.  Two popular ideas of Frankenstein, the saying "it lives!" and Igor, Victor's assistant were created by Peake in the play but not added by Shelley in later editions.
