98. When Mary Shelley Met Percy Shelley *TEASER*

We’re getting into the Halloween spirit with this truly gothic, spooky, and surprisingly non-monogamous relationship from the 1800s. You may know Mary Shelley as the writer and creator of Frankenstein, but her love life really was stranger than fiction!  Enter Percy Shelley, the devilishly handsome poet and advocate of ‘free-love.’ Percy’s already married when he meets young Mary, and they declare their love for each other in the most fitting of places: a graveyard. *****  This is a teaser for a bonus episode.
