The mysterious tale of an unburned heart, a literary masterpiece born from a ghost story competition, and the enduring legacy of a 20-year-old author's imagination all come together in our exploration of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

We journey through the fascinating life of the woman who created one of literature's most iconic monsters and the peculiar circumstances surrounding her marriage to poet Percy Bysshe Shelley.
Just as Mary Shelley transformed a friendly writing contest into a revolutionary work that defined the science fiction genre, we believe everyone has the power to create their own destiny. Join us on this journey through literature's darkest corners and discover how these stories can inspire your own creative potential.
