Today I learned about the tiny Ice Age and I learned that Frankenstein was written because of the Ice Age.
Mary Shelley, her husband and a couple they were with would go to Geneva for vacation. They usually would go boating and swimming and lots of other stuff outside. But the year they went it was very cold due to the Tiny Ice Age and so they decided to have a competition on who could make the best horror story. After a few days Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein

That is such an interesting bit of trivia. I didn't know that at all!
