About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

Did you know that Bath is the official birthplace of FRANKENSTEIN? Visit the origins of the world’s most famous Monster and experience The House of Frankenstein’s award winning, multi-sensory Museum & Escape Rooms. Here visitors will discover the true story of author Mary Shelley, who wrote the novel whilst living in Bath in 1816, learn about her unconventional tragic life and the incredible global legacy of her infamous creation. Bursting with unusual artefacts, emotive soundtracks, bespoke smells and effects it also features rooms dedicated to Popular Culture, an intimate screening room showing the first ever Frankenstein film from 1910, a jaw dropping 8ft animated Creature, two themed Escape Rooms and, for the braver visitor, a creepy walkthrough experience in the basement.
