After being diagnosed with a life-threatening blood condition at a young age, Michael Morbius became a brilliant doctor with a handful of close friends. He eventually developed an experimental way of curing his illness. Unfortunately, the doctor’s use of vampire bats and electricity on a boat backfired and transformed him into a being with a craving for blood. An uncontrollable Morbius immediately attacked his best friend to fulfill his hunger. Horrified at what he’d done, he threw himself into the ocean in hopes he wouldn’t attack anyone else. But Morbius came across a boat where he fed on cruel men. Although he heavily regretted his actions, it was only the start of the living vampire’s journey.
