It has terrified and entertained readers for decades. It is more than just a story about the creation of a monster. Mary Shelley gave readers not only a novel that has inspired great minds to create monsters of their own, but also opened up an endless debate regarding who the real monster is.

"You know me to be a ferryman", I said, pushing the circlet up and over my forehead. "How?" "Why, by taking one look at you, that's how! You've no mask, that much is true, nor have you a scythe, as I've said...you've the cloak, all right, but that can be purchased at even the lowliest of costume shops; I've one just like it in my wagon here, in fact. No, this is something in the face itself. It's an aura." He paused, appraising me coldly. "You've the heart of a ferryman."

I saw the human race fall and monsters arise in their place. Millions of these creatures attacked those humans who remained, devouring flesh with an insatiable hunger. They tore flesh from the bone, drenching their rage with blood. They had no remorse, no guilt, and served no purpose except bringing death wherever they went. I had nightmares for more than five years every night after it all began. I would wake up screaming, which, as you can imagine, is an extremely bad thing with Fallen around every corner.
