Originally the residence of Lord Konrad Dippel von Frankenstein during the 1500s, Frankenstein Castle's myths and legends overshadow its actual history. Legend has it that von Frankenstein exchanged his soul for the secrets to eternal life. He was allegedly found dead in his laboratory, foaming at the mouth and surrounded by various body parts he had stolen from area cemeteries. Whether truth or fiction, many people believe that writer Mary Shelley heard this tale during a trip to <font>Germany</font> in 1814 and used it (and the castle) as the inspiration for her famous novel.
