for Claude Frollo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame Live
Suggested by jeanpaulvalley

Quasimodo was once the bell ringer of Notre-Dame, in Paris, where he lived as a recluse because of his master, the evil Judge Claude Frollo, but times are changing. Cursed for having involuntarily participated in the death of the gypsy Esméralda, the Hunchback is condemned to live forever without aging, but he succeeds in making and giving life to a Gargoyle that he named in homage to the gypsy, with whom he lives in friend in the shadows for a long time. However, in the present day, Frollo, who has become a vampire and leads a French organization wanting to control "the monsters", orders a manhunt to capture his former slave. However Quasimodo has become stronger with centuries past, and he and his friend Gargoyle intend to keep their freedom, even in the face of the Devil himself !
