33rd and 8th Street is a cross intersection of 33rd Street and 8th Street in Manhattan, New York City, New York. In 2017, this was the scene of a fight between Liesel van Helsing and Franklin Shelley, who had been reconstituted as a reanimated developed from parts of cadavers by his scientist wife Taylor Shelley. As police arrived on the scene, Van Helsing tried to stop the monster with her guns, but Shelley tore one of the officers in half. She then blew up a nearby police truck in the hopes of stopping the creature, but this too failed. Other officers on the scene opened fire, but Franklin Shelley was impervious to their bullets. Taylor Shelley tried to stop Liesel from attacking her husband and did so by stabbing her in the abdomen with a knife. Liesel soon recovered however, with some aide from her friend Angelica Blackstone.
