Synopsis

Lord Byron, residing in a grand estate on the shores of Lake Geneva, is visited by Percy and Mary Shelley. Alongside Byron's companion, Claire Clairmont, and with the influence of hallucinogenic substances, they spend an evening crafting eerie and ghoulish tales. As the night unfolds and they are confronted by terrifying apparitions seemingly born from their own imaginations, the boundaries between illusion and reality begin to blur.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
