I thought a few in the audience (though, being the weekend, what audience?) would care to know that the summer Frankenstien was written, one other person in the party wrote a book that helped to shape a very popular branch of the horror genre. His book set a lot of precendents still comonly used by all you incessant people who like them so much. Here's the quote the book I'm reading uses:

Lord Ruthven had disappeared, and Aubrey's sister had glutted the thirst of a VAMPYRE! ~The Vampyre, Dr. John Polidori, 1819
