MARY SHELLEY, LAKE GENEVA, AND A VISIT TO CASTLE FRANKENSTEIN

Here we share what inspired the original story of a murderous monster created from inanimate parts by an overreaching doctor, it was first published in 1820, was a major success worldwide, and has spawned countless books, movies, and debates regarding the limits we place on man's constant quest to play god by creating life artificially. Many of you are familiar with the story, but few people know what actually inspired 18 year- old Mary Shelley to write it. Its a drama in itself, complete with illicit affairs, shared sex, mad doctors, adultery, two famous English authors, a candlelit villa on Lake Geneva, a wild dream, and a ghostly castle deep in Germany where untold experiments were being carried out on human cadavers. Also featuring an exclusive interview with Rob Demarest of Ghost Hunters International recalling his visits with team to Castle Frankenstein. Try the new "Tales of Escape & Suspense"- links below!
