Long after her death, Mary Shelley (Jessie Buckley) takes a lead role in the story of The Bride! Together with a bored, free-spirited, but troubled young woman (also Jessie Buckley) she intends to dispense chaos in order to relieve her spirit of a story that she deems must be told. In a world where she not only wrote about Dr. Frankenstein and his monster, but they were real beings (manifested by her words or created in reality? We’ll never know) she burns to continue the tale that has yet to conclude in her mind.
