He details his time as a medical student at <a href="/wiki/Miskatonic_University" class="mw-redirect" title="Miskatonic University">Miskatonic University</a>, during which is when the narrator becomes fascinated by West's theories, which postulate that the human body is simply a complex, organic machine which can be "restarted". West eventually realizes he must experiment on human subjects. The two men steal supplies from their <a href="/wiki/Medical_school" title="Medical school">medical school</a> and set up their lab in an abandoned farmhouse. At first, they pay a group of men to rob graves for them, but none of the experiments are successful. West and the narrator then rob graves themselves. One night, they steal the corpse of a construction worker who died that morning in an accident. They take it back to the farmhouse and inject it with West's <a href="/wiki/Serous_fluid" title="Serous fluid">serum</a>, but nothing happens. Later, an inhuman scream is heard from within the room containing the corpse. Moved by instinct, they flee. West accidentally sets the lab on fire after tripping over a lantern while escaping. The next day, the newspaper reports that a grave in Potter's Field, violently molested the night before, displays the claws of a beast. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Plague-Daemon">The Plague-Daemon</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Herbert_West%E2%80%93Reanimator&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: The Plague-Daemon"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some time after the fire, West's research is stunted when Dr. Allen Halsey, the dean of the medical school, refuses to allow him access to human <a href="/wiki/Cadaver" title="Cadaver">cadavers</a> or the university's dissection lab. West has a stroke of luck, though, when he and the narrator are called to help tend to the many dying victims of a local <a href="/wiki/Typhoid" class="mw-redirect" title="Typhoid">typhoid</a> outbreak. West begins injecting his patients with a new serum, which has no greater effect than to cause some of the bodies' eyes to open. Eventually, Halsey succumbs to typhoid, and, as a final act of twisted respect for his former rival, West steals his corpse to reanimate. West and the narrator take the body back to West's room at a <a href="/wiki/Boarding_house" title="Boarding house">boarding house</a>, where they inject it with the new serum. Halsey does in fact reanimate, but, inexplicably, he is less intelligent and more violent than their previous experiment. After beating West and the narrator into unconsciousness, Halsey embarks on a killing spree, beating and murdering over a dozen people before he is apprehended by the police. The <a href="/wiki/Human_cannibalism" title="Human cannibalism">cannibal</a> murderer is soon committed to a local mental institution.

The two experiment on several corpses with varying outcomes, but they do not achieve a breakthrough. Still intent upon successfully reanimating a human being, they claim the body of a boxing champion who died of a head wound in an illegal back-alley street fight. Gamblers betting on the fight arrange for West to dispose of the body, as it clears them of any crime. West and the narrator hurriedly take the body back to the lab and inject it with another new serum. When nothing happens, they take the corpse out to a meadow and bury it. Several days later, there are reports around town of a missing child. The child's mother dies during a fit of hysteria due to her weak heart, and the father tries to kill West in a fit of rage because West could not save her. That night, West and the narrator are startled by an aggressive pounding on their back door. Opening the door, West and the narrator come face to face with the boxer's corpse, covered in mildew and dirt and hunched over at the back entrance. Hanging from the boxer's mouth is the arm of the missing child. Almost instantly, West kills the boxer by emptying an entire revolver into him. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Scream_of_the_Dead">The Scream of the Dead</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Herbert_West%E2%80%93Reanimator&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: The Scream of the Dead"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some time after West's killing of the reanimated boxer, the narrator returns home from vacation to discover the perfectly preserved corpse of a man in the home he shares with West. West explains that during the narrator's absence, he perfected a type of <a href="/wiki/Embalming_fluid" class="mw-redirect" title="Embalming fluid">embalming fluid</a> that perfectly preserves a corpse as it is the moment the chemical is injected into the bloodstream; injected at the precise moment of death, the chemical prevents decomposition from even beginning. West reveals to the narrator that the dead man is a traveling salesman who had a heart attack during a physical examination; as the man died before West's eyes, he was able to preserve it with the embalming fluid and has been waiting for the narrator to return so that the two of them can reanimate the body together. West injects the body with his latest serum. Signs of life gradually begin to appear. When the narrator questions the man, he mouths words with seeming rationality and intent. Just before the man returns to the dead, he begins screaming and thrashing violently, revealing in a horrible scream that he was in fact murdered by West. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Horror_from_the_Shadows">The Horror from the Shadows</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Herbert_West%E2%80%93Reanimator&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: The Horror from the Shadows"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Five years later, West and the narrator become involved in <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a> as a means to procure more bodies. Serving as a medic in <a href="/wiki/Flanders" title="Flanders">Flanders</a>, West has gone beyond the point of simply trying to reanimate corpses; his experiments now include isolating parts of the body and reanimating them independently in an attempt to prove their machine-like quality. On the battlefield, West befriends his commanding officer and fellow medic, <a href="/wiki/Major_(rank)" title="Major (rank)">Major</a> <a href="/wiki/Sir" title="Sir">Sir</a> Eric Moreland Clapham-Lee, and shares with him his theories and methods on reanimation. Shortly thereafter, Clapham-Lee suffers near-<a href="/wiki/Decapitation" title="Decapitation">decapitation</a> and dies when his plane is shot down. West immediately begins work on Clapham-Lee's body and injects the trunk of his body with his serum and places the head in a vat. The corpse comes to life and begins thrashing violently, reliving its last moments of life. Clapham-Lee's severed head begins shouting from across the room. The building is then destroyed by a bomb shell. West and the narrator survive, but there is no sign of Clapham-Lee's head or body. The two men assume that he was vaporized in the blast, although West is since known to speak fearfully of a headless doctor with the power of reanimation. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Tomb-Legions">The Tomb-Legions</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Herbert_West%E2%80%93Reanimator&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: The Tomb-Legions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A year after returning from the war, West has moved into a house which is directly connected to an ancient system of <a href="/wiki/Catacombs" title="Catacombs">catacombs</a> from settler times. While reading the newspaper one night, West comes across an article detailing a series of strange, seemingly nonsensical events involving a riot at an insane asylum. A wax-headed man (Clapham-Lee) followed by a group of disturbing-looking followers carrying a box had demanded that the detained "cannibal" killer (Halsey) be released to them. When the invaders were refused exchange for the killer, they took him by force. West spends the remainder of the night in a near-<a href="/wiki/Catatonic" class="mw-redirect" title="Catatonic">catatonic</a> state until someone comes to the door. The narrator answers only to find a group of men. One of the figures presents the narrator with the large box, which the narrator then gives to West. West refuses to open the box and insists that they incinerate it. The two men carry it to the basement and burn it. As soon as the box burns, the zombies tear through the wall of West's home via the catacombs. Leaving the narrator alone, the zombies soon attack West. Realizing that his own death is imminent, West allows the zombies to <a href="/wiki/Disembowelment" title="Disembowelment">disembowel</a> him. As a final insult, Clapham-Lee decapitates West's corpse before leading his army of zombies off into the night. The narrator does not reveal much to the police about West, and they disbelieve the information he does reveal since the catacomb wall seems intact and undisturbed. The narrator is forever haunted, considered mad, by his knowledge of what transpired and the lack of resolution regarding the raised corpses. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Characters">Characters</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Herbert_West%E2%80%93Reanimator&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Characters"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="shortdescription nomobile noexcerpt noprint searchaux" style="display:none">Fictional character</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1257001546"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1256394594">.mw-parser-output .ib-character{border-spacing:2px 5px}.mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-above,.mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-header{background-color:#DEDEE2}.mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-image img{background-color:#f8f9fa}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-above,html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-header{background:hsl(240,6%,20%);color:inherit}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-above,html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .ib-character .infobox-header{background:hsl(240,6%,20%);color:inherit}}</style><table class="infobox ib-character"><tbody><tr><th colspan="2" class="infobox-above notheme">Herbert West</th></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-subheader">'<b><a href="/wiki/Re-Animator" title="Re-Animator">Re-Animator</a>'</b> character</td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-image"><span class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Frameless"><a href="/wiki/File:Herbert_West.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/33/Herbert_West.jpg/220px-Herbert_West.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="380" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/33/Herbert_West.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="240" data-file-height="414" /></a></span><div class="infobox-caption">Cover art for <i>ReAnimator</i> #1 (April 2015) by <a href="/wiki/Jae_Lee" title="Jae Lee">Jae Lee</a>.</div></td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label">First appearance</th><td class="infobox-data">"Herbert West—Reanimator"</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label">Created by</th><td class="infobox-data"><a href="/wiki/H._P._Lovecraft" title="H.

He is portrayed as a brilliant, narcissistic, and intensely driven young man of an amoral nature, traits carried over into the 1985 film. His arrogance and lack of respect for life (and death) prove to be his undoing. He is depicted as the inventor of a solution that can <a href="/wiki/Undeath" class="mw-redirect" title="Undeath">re-animate</a> deceased bodies. However, most subjects that have undergone the re-animation process turn violent and, after failed attempts to return to their own graves, wreak havoc. In Lovecraft's tale, Herbert West was ostracized by his fellow medical students because he believed he could overcome death and had only one friend: the unnamed narrator of the story. West was portrayed by actor <a href="/wiki/Jeffrey_Combs" title="Jeffrey Combs">Jeffrey Combs</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Re-Animator" title="Re-Animator">1985 film adaptation of the story</a>. Combs reprised the role in the film's two sequels, <i><a href="/wiki/Bride_of_Re-Animator" title="Bride of Re-Animator">Bride of Re-Animator</a></i> (1990) and <i><a href="/wiki/Beyond_Re-Animator" title="Beyond Re-Animator">Beyond Re-Animator</a></i> (2003). In 2013, West as portrayed by Combs was selected by <a href="/wiki/Empire_(film_magazine)" class="mw-redirect" title="Empire (film magazine)"><i>Empire</i> magazine</a> as the 42nd greatest horror film character, describing him as "one of cinema's greatest mad scientists".<sup id="cite_ref-Empire_2013_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Empire_2013-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Outside of <a href="/wiki/Re-Animator_(film_series)" title="Re-Animator (film series)">the film series</a>, the character has appeared in comic books, novels, and video games.</li> <li>The narrator: West's only friend, the narrator initially attaches himself to West in college out of a kind of hero worship mentality, awed at the daring of West's experiments. Over time, though, as West's experiments become more morally reprehensible, and West seems to lose interest in science and instead indulge in sheer perversity, the narrator comes to fear West and becomes a kind of slave to him, too afraid of West's capacity for evil to outright abandon him. In the <a href="/wiki/Re-Animator" title="Re-Animator">1985 film adaptation</a>, the character is (ostensibly) named Dan Cain (played by <a href="/wiki/Bruce_Abbott" title="Bruce Abbott">Bruce Abbott</a>).</li> <li>Dean Allen Halsey: The Dean of Miskatonic University's medical school. He does not take West's theories about reanimation seriously and the narrator characterizes him as benevolently old-fashioned and closed-minded. Dr. Halsey dies from being severely overworked during a typhoid outbreak and is hailed as a community hero. West reanimates his body as a sign of respect, to convince him – and others – of the validity of his theories. Halsey, however, returns to life as an inarticulate, cannibalistic ghoul. The reanimated Halsey's behavior is mistaken for insanity and he is locked in a mental institution.</li> <li>Major Sir Eric Moreland Clapham-Lee: West and the narrator's commanding officer during World War I. As the narrator does not know him terribly well, little information is given about him, other than he shares West's perverse fascination with cheating death. After Maj. Clapham-Lee dies when his plane is shot down, West decides to "honor" Clapham-Lee by chopping off his head and trying to bring his body back to life. The experiment backfires when the decapitated body revives, acting out its final actions before dying in a plane crash, and the severed head also revives yelling for his co-pilot to "jump".
