Answer:
The "being which had the shape of a man, but apparently of gigantic stature" seen by the crew is the monster. Since the crew has no way to follow the man due to the ice, they are bound to remain with their ship until the ice releases them. A few hours later, the late summer thaw frees the ship to sail free again. Here we have a sense of the eerie and sublime with a scene being played out in a fantastic place, the northern reaches of the world. The weather conditions suggest a sense of doom and mystery. The Gothic novel usually has a setting that is mysterious and foreboding.
In pursuit of his "demon," Victor is brought aboard the ship immediately and given comfort. Walton describes Victor as a "stranger [who] addressed me in English, although with a foreign accent." Two days pass before Victor begins to tell his story of how he came so far from land. He remarks to an officer that he "seek[s] one who fled from me."
