SUMMARY UNIT: 5 HORROR STORIES

SUMMARY UNIT: 5 HORROR STORIES


Some of the most famous horror stories were written by British writers. The first was published by Mary Shelly in 1818-- Frankenstein. Bam Stoker, the Irish writer, created Dracula in 1897. There are many films which feature these two horror characters.
Stoker thought of his story when he was sitting in Highgate tomb. He wondered what would heppen if moonlight could wake up a dead body in a tomb.
Now visitors to London can go on special guided Dracula tours. British people love to be scared!
