Written by Mary Shelley during a summer in Geneva with notable literary figures, the narrative emerged from a contest to craft horror stories, inspired by ghost tales and discussions on science and philosophy. Shelley, just nineteen at the time, combined elements of her era's intellectual debates with a haunting narrative, resulting in a groundbreaking work published anonymously in 1818.
