Mary Godwin Shelley (1797-1851) was an English writer credited for the creation of the Science Fiction Genre with her groundbreaking novel Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus. Mary Shelley began writing Frankenstein in 1816 after a competition between herself, her partner, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron over who could write the best horror story. Mary’s life was marked by tragedy, including the deaths of three of her children and Percy’s drowning in 1822. She dedicated the rest of her life to promoting Percy’s work in his memory as well as continuing her literary pursuits.
1818

1831
- Mary Shelley publishes a revised version of the original Frankenstein, now with herself listed as the author.

2012
- Frankenstein enters the world of animation with Hotel Transylvania and Frankenweenie both premiering in 2012. This more family-friendly approach to the monster has lasted for years in Hotel Transylvania’s many sequels!
2019
