In the summer of 1816, five people, among them the famous poets Lord Byron and Percy B. Shelley, confined themselves to a villa near Lake Geneva and played a literary game, writing the most frightening story they could imagine. That night, nineteenyear-old Mary Shelley conceived a terrifying and marvelous tale intended to “make readers afraid to look around, freezing their blood and speeding up their heartbeat.” That story was Frankenstein.
