Hi bababanana,
As to what inspired me, I think I've always had some love for gothic monsters and tbh I thought it would be a good excuse to explore bad endings ( I seem to enjoy writing these for some reason lol). I started creating this on a whim but after looking more into classical gothic literature and the historical context of its time, I have more appreciation for why it still holds so much appeal. I feel like there is a lot of interesting social reflections that still resonate to this day.
