Thanks, but I read all of those
>>8904553
I have read the Castle of Otranto, but thanks a lot for the rest - I haven't heard of those. You made making this thread worth it!
Here is a list of all those that I read:castle of otranto,frankenstein,dracula,the monk,jane eyre,Wuthering Heights,Legend of Sleepy Hollow,The Vampyre,Carmilla ,
The Picture of Dorian Grey,Various of Poe,A Sicilian Romance,The Mysteries Of uldopho,Turn of The Screw,Phantom of The Opera,Hunchback of Notre-Dame and Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde.
This is not books, but I love Herzog's Nosferatu (even more then the original silent film) due to how true it stayed to Gothic literature.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanticism

Not to be confused with Romance, it is the anti-thesis of the Enlightenment and deals largely on; emotions, history, nature and the supernatural among others.

Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelly and William Wordsworth are good example of English Romantic poets.
