Frankenstein, the story of a mad scientist who brings the dead back to life, only to discover that he has created a monster, continues to be one of our most popular and lasting horror stories.
National Frankenstein Day celebrates its author Mary Shelley, born on August 30, 1797. "Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus" was the book's original title, and Shelly was just a teenager when she wrote Frankenstein.
As if living a teenage dream, she ran away with the poet Percy Bysshe and gave birth to two children over the first two years. In 1816, the couple traveled to Switzerland and visited Lord Byron at Villa Diodati. While there, 18-year-old Mary started writing Frankenstein. The book was published in 1818 when she was 20 years old.
