Mary Shelley’s time in Scotland inspired her dark imagination: the isolation of the islands, the shadows of the graveyards, the spectacle of Edinburgh’s dissecting rooms. Now, more than 200 years later, her Monster rises again in the very city that helped bring it to life.
Will you watch the moment Mary’s nightmare comes alive… or regret ever stepping foot in the theatre?
Please note, navigation around the Dungeon is mainly via dark, level pathways. However, due to the nature of the attraction and the building, some floor surfaces are uneven. Full details are available on the Dungeon’s accessibility page.
