Grand Moff Tarkin's TERRIFYING Experiment - Star Wars Explained #Shorts

Happy Halloween! Did you know that Grand Moff Tarkin created a Frankenstein type monster, a combination of several different species? It was created for war, but it escaped the lab and hunted Tarkin down on a star destroyer. The Grand Moff abandoned the ship, disabled the escape pods, and sabotaged the reactor, hoping to destroy his creation along with all witnesses on board. The creature saved as many lives as he could, escorting them to a pod, which he then freed through his own brute strength. His sacrifice led to the defection of at least one Imperial officer, ensuring that the story would live on.

When you've created something with greater moral fiber than you, you've done something wrong.

[bdavisfan]

That is so cool. A nod to Peter Cushing's Hammer horror days.

[whatthetrend]

Now we know about Tarkin’s awesome past at the cartoon spike his ability to take on creatures like this makes a lot more sense!

[MCLegoboy]

That's quite possibly the most bombastic thing I've ever heard of in Star Wars.

[benperez]

TFW when not even the Sith could reach the level of Douchebaggery that Tarkin possessed.

[alexrusset]

You weren't kidding about that Frankenstein comparison.

[akuma]

"Just because I am bad guy, doesnt mean I am bad guy"

[hunterkiller]

I wonder if Tarkin ever wanted to make himself Force sensitive

[lucabestea]

When the monster has more of a heart than its human tyrant.

[eternalgalacticstarpilot]

Weird that it was intelligent enough to both hate/wanna kill it's creator but also protect life that hasn't done it any wrong

[duck]

He sabotaged the reactor? Thats pretty sus

[drew]

Grand Moff Tarkin the type of monster to attempt to make a monster and have it backfire

[t.w.mackay]

This is AWESOME! Was this in Canon or Legends? Cool regardless; just curious.

[publiclyshamed]

What a great Halloween Star Wars story!

[diabologe]

Seems like the head could be of Ferren Barr 🤔

[ethantrimble]

Star Wars is weird and fun and emotional

[blueraccoon]

The real monster is Tarken the creation was a hero

[phantom-rider]

Th "creatures" head is really familiar like the head belongs to a jedi

[Uglytruthgenx]

@starwars. That imperial officer should be migs Mayfield. Which would add another level of hate to that season 2 episode in madalorian

[Dockultra]

Peter Cushing (the actor of grand moff tarkin) actually played Victor Frankenstein.
