I believe you are referring to Mary Shelley and the writing of Frankenstein. Lord Byron and her soon to be husband Percy Shelley were on a vacation Geneva, Switzerland. The weather was cold and dark. They began telling ghost stories to each othe and decided to have a little competition to write gothic stories.
