The film is pretty one note - a good note - the book has much more depth to it. One could make an arguement that Young Frankenstein even with it's zany side which is pretty much the whole side is the deepest most faithful to the novella.

The Gothic novel always seemed to me to promise more than it ever
delivered, like, say, "Melmoth the Wanderer" or "The Monk". The film
is rather demented, not unlike speed metal. The book has a dreamy
placid quality, low splatter factor. Regards,
