Gothic literature can be described as a mixture of horror literature and romantic literature.
In Gothic novels, the atmosphere is easily recognizable as it is filled with horror, anxiety, gloom and mystery.
The characters are also nearly always faced with the supernatural, therefore, they can encounter creatures such as vampires, ghosts, skeletons, werewolves, zombies, or undead beings in general.
As for the settings, the plot usually takes place in haunted houses, or old castles, which are also haunted, in places in a state of decay, in a graveyard.
It is also usual for nature to play a big role in Gothic literature with elements such as storms, thunders, or fog often being present in Gothic works.
