"Again; there is a sound as of a human voice, but hoarser; it comes from the cabin where the remains of Frankenstein still lie." PAGE 162
This quote is an example of forshadowing. Hearing the sound forshadows that the creature is there. Also, the quote forshadows that it is the creature by saying the sound as of a human voice, but it does not say a human voice. This insinuates it is not a human. The creature came back to Victor. He is disappointed when he finds him already dead because he had other plans for him. The forshadowing is effective because the reader is expecting the creature to be there. The forshadowing is also effective because it emphasizes the nonhumanity of the creature. This proves that the creature will be the one in the cabin. The forshadowin also proves that it will be the creature by saying in Victor's cabin. Coming from any other cabin it would not be as effective.
