Suspense

• In the letters, the stranger has no name.
• Walton describes the stranger by what he wears,
  how he acts, and what he says.

Mood

• In Frankenstein, Mary Shelly provided a quiet
  mood.
• It was very tense and unbelievable.
• The tone remains serious and dramatic throughout
  the frames. Laughter belongs nowhere in Mary
  Shelleys tale.
