I am alone and miserable; man will not associate with me; but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me. My companion must be of the same species and have the same defects. This being you must create. ” (page 123) The creature hates humanity because people are rude.
He did not do anything before he killed William and he still gets treated like an animal. His intentions are not to hurt people. He just wants a companion.

He had once been innocent but he was lonely so he had no choice but to be mean. He never had one single person and he was all alone. This had taken a role on him. Unfortunately, he let his anger get the best of him.
