Gothic
Living on an estate on the shores of Lake Geneva, Lord Byron is visited by Percy and Mary Shelley. Together with Byron's lover Claire Clairmont, and aided by hallucinogenic substances, they devise an evening of ghoulish tales. However, when confronted by horrors, ostensibly of their own creation, it becomes difficult to tell apparition from reality.

The premise (and the VHS/DVD cover) are better than the actual movie is.
Looking at the description on the back of the VHS one rainy Friday night, I thought this is right up my alley, having been studying the writers at school at the time.
But the film itself is rather dry and mediocre unfortunately.
