Mary Shelley - The Mother of American Gothic Horror

Before Bram Stoker wrote Dracula, even before Edgar Allen Poe wrote his Tell-Tale Heart, the genre of gothic horror was brought forth out of the incredible mind of a 21-year-old woman name MARY SHELLEY. 

Mary had already suffered quite a bit of loss in her first 21 years and her connection to death, grief, and the existential human story created not only the first novel of its' kind, but what would also become one of the most quintessential horror novels of all time.

Listen now to hear the full story of Mary Shelley's fascinating, and heartbreaking life, and the birth of her Frankenstein.
