Wrap yourself in Gothic literary history with this luxurious long scarf featuring the handwritten manuscript of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s Frankenstein. The design showcases the opening pages of Chapter 6 from her first draft, complete with revisions, crossings-out, and marginal notes — a rare glimpse into the living mind of a genius at work. The manuscript is preserved today in the Bodleian Library at Oxford, and here it becomes a soft, wearable relic of the Romantic era.
Handmade to order and entirely cruelty-free, the fabric drapes beautifully as a statement scarf, shawl, or boho head wrap. The inky script, parchment tones, and intimate editorial marks create a deeply immersive Dark Academia aesthetic — scholarly, dramatic, and hauntingly poetic. This is not just an accessory, but a conversation piece for lovers of Gothic literature and history.
Perfect for Frankenstein fans, writers, academics, library dwellers, literature students, horror romantics, and anyone drawn to candlelit studies and storm-lit imagination, this scarf makes an unforgettable gift. It invites you to carry the creation myth of modern science-fiction wherever you go — the moment when ink, inspiration, and raw creativity first sparked life into one of the world’s most enduring stories.
