概要
Mary Shelley: Frankenstein, Literary Fuckboys & the Summer That Invented Horror

Picture it. Switzerland, 1816. The sun has apparently taken the year off, everyone's love life is an absolute disaster, and a group of ridiculously dramatic writers are stuck inside a villa overlooking Lake Geneva.

Naturally, somebody suggests a ghost-story competition.

Welcome to Love Island: Gothic Edition, where we've got Lord Byron being a walking scandal, Percy Shelley collecting red flags like they're souvenirs, and an 18-year-old Mary Shelley casually creating one of the most influential horror stories of all time.

In this episode of So That's How That Happened!, we're gossiping about the chaotic summer that inspired Frankenstein, the literary love triangles, John Polidori's contribution to vampire fiction, and the heartbreak that followed everyone home.

Because while the men were busy being profoundly exhausting, Mary was writing a story about a man who creates life and then refuses to take responsibility for it.

Interesting choice of subject matter, don't you think?

Grab your mimosas, history hotties. We've got 200-year-old tea to spill.

Keep the gossip going:

Until next time, my history-loving besties, stay scandalous.
