Lord Byron
Mary Shelley and her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley began reading ghost stories to each other while staying with Lord Byron at Villa Diodati in Switzerland. This inspired Mary to write her famous novel "Frankenstein." The group's shared interest in supernatural stories led to a challenge to write their own Horror tales, resulting in Mary penning her iconic work.
Mary Shelley was with her soon-to-be husband Percy Bysshe Shelley when she began writing gothic stories. They were part of a literary circle that included Lord Byron and John Polidori, both of whom also wrote gothic works.
Mary Shelley wanted to write ghost stories that were real. She would visit places and then write about them.
Mary Shelley came up with the story of Frankenstein while she was with her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron during a summer retreat at Lake Geneva in 1816. The idea for Frankenstein was born during a discussion about the nature of life and the potential of science to create life artificially.
uhm... Because She loves reading fantasy stories

Mary Shelley was influenced by discussions about science, philosophy, and societal progress during the Romantic era. She was inspired by debates about the ethical implications of scientific advancements, the nature of humanity, and the potential consequences of playing God. These discussions contributed to the development of her idea for "Frankenstein" and its themes of hubris, creation, and the responsibility of the creator.
She was at Lord Byron's house telling ghost stories!
