Lake Geneva


Lake Geneva, By Schnäggli - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0
Lake Geneva, where Lord Byron spent a memorable weekend with his doctor, John Polidori, and friends Percy Bysshe Shelley and Mary Shelley, and Claire Clairmont (Mary's stepsister and a special friend of Byron's — and that's all that we'll say about that.) A vampire novel and Frankenstein were the result to the lasting benefit for all of us who enjoy horror stories.
