These creepy, creaky literary classics have the power to transport listeners to foggy moors and crumbling estates, where wolves howl in the night and shadows lurk in the hallways. But Gothic fiction is more than just cobwebs and candelabras.</p><p><br/> </p><h2><b class="font-bold"></b></h2><h2><b class="font-bold">What is Gothic fiction?</b></h2><p>One of the primary definitions of “Gothic” relates to an architectural style that originated in northern France in the 12th century. This style was used on cathedrals, castles, mansions, and more. With its large, looming windows, pointy peaks, and dark facades, Gothic architecture paved the way for a whole gloomy genre of music, fashion, and, of course, literature.</p><p>Gothic fiction's roots go back nearly 300 years to Britain in the mid-18th century. Like Gothic architecture, this literary style is marked by vivid images of foreboding castles and mansions with secret alcoves and shadowy rooms. But it's also defined by a mood. Gothic fiction embraces a romantic idealization of death, mixed with high drama and the supernatural. An offshoot of the movement of Romanticism, which was popularized in the first half of the 18th century in Europe and marked by abundance of emotions and imagination, Gothic fiction took such passionate characteristics and added a darker tone. Fans of Gothic fiction embraced the genre's dives into the unknown and the mysterious, reveling in the sensation of being kept on edge. While an enormous departure from the realistic works that had dominated literature for so long, it was welcomed with wide open arms.</p><p><br/> </p><h2><b class="font-bold"></b></h2><h2><b class="font-bold">What is the history of Gothic fiction?</b></h2><p>The first work to be classified as Gothic literature is English author <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Horace-Walpole/B000AQ441A" rel="noopener noreferrer">Horace Walpole</a>'s <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Castle-of-Otranto-AmazonClassics-Edition-Audiobook/1799718786" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i class="italic">The Castle of Otranto</i></a>, published in 1764. It is said that Walpole took inspiration from his own 18th-century Gothic-styled home (which had a very un-Goth name: Strawberry Hill House) for this novel. It tells the story of the doomed Manfred, lord of the castle, and his heirs. On the day his son is to wed a princess, a helmet falls from the castle wall and kills him. This is a tragedy, yes, but Manfred dreads something worse than his son's death: an ancient curse on his family. Divorce, mistaken identity, ghosts, murder, and general mayhem ensue. </p><p>After Walpole, other early contributors to Gothic literature included William Thomas Beckford, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Matthew-Lewis/B00DOIELO6" rel="noopener noreferrer">Matthew Lewis</a>, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Ann-Ward-Radcliffe/B001ILIGGA" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ann Radcliffe</a>, and <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Clara-Reeve/B001HD3D80" rel="noopener noreferrer">Clara Reeve</a>. As the 18th century came to a close, the hallmarks of the genre were well established—but it wasn't until the 19th century that works of Gothic literature became popular worldwide. Edgar Allan Poe's <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Fall-of-the-House-of-Usher-Audiobook/B09QD4NQXF" rel="noopener noreferrer">"The Fall of the House of Usher"</a> is one of the early popular examples and one of the first widely published works of Gothic fiction by an American. This short story is about the doomed Usher family and their descent into madness, and it is dripping with foreboding and despair.</p><p>Another great 19th century work of Gothic fiction is <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/Jane-Eyre-Audiobook/B01COOZ5C2" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i class="italic">Jane Eyre</i></a> by Charlotte Brontë, which was published in 1847. It is about a young woman named—you guessed it—Jane Eyre, who survives an unpleasant upbringing and is hired as a governess for Edward Rochester. Rochester's home is dark and frightening, with shadowy halls and strange noises in the night. To further complicate matters, Jane is overcome with romantic feelings for her employer. While this novel only flirts with the unexplained, later Gothic works of the 19th century feature actual supernatural happenings and creatures.</p><p>Over the successive decades and centuries, Gothic fiction has endured, with many more classics added to the canon. In the early 20th century, the genre also spawned its own subgenre in the United States: Southern Gothic fiction. This subgenre combines all the marks of Gothic fiction, such as the crumbling buildings and feelings of despair, but the works are set in the Southern USA. Popular Southern Gothic authors include<a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Flannery-OConnor/B000APYI6W" rel="noopener noreferrer"> Flannery O'Connor</a>, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/William-Faulkner/B000APYUP6" rel="noopener noreferrer">William Faulkner</a>, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Carson-McCullers/B000APYAU6" rel="noopener noreferrer">Carson McCullers</a>, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Tennessee-Williams/B000AP8Q3S" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tennessee Williams</a>, <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Truman-Capote/B000APW81E" rel="noopener noreferrer">Truman Capote</a>, and <a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Anne-Rice/B000APVMQ6" rel="noopener noreferrer">Anne Rice</a>. And today, the term Gothic fiction has become widely used to describe works of heightened drama and horror in any setting, even outer space. </p><p>Now that you know the definition of Gothic fiction and where it came from, here are a few engrossing audiobooks to deepen your immersion. From classics of the genre to a selection of fantastic recent entries, these are just a sampling of the great listens Gothic fiction has to offer. </p><p><i class="italic"><b class="font-bold"></b></i><a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Wife-in-the-Attic-Audiobook/B08W2P8GZN" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i class="italic"><b class="font-bold">The Wife in the Attic</b></i></a><b class="font-bold"> by </b><a href="https://www.audible.com/author/Rose-Lerner/B002XG82QI" rel="noopener noreferrer"><b class="font-bold">Rose Lerner</b></a><b class="font-bold">, narrated by Elsa Lepecki Bean</b> </p><p>Like many Gothic classics, <i class="italic">The Wife in the Attic</i> is a dark, historical romance.

Jane Shoringfield is a practical young woman with a head for numbers and no interest in matters of the heart. To satisfy societal conventions and her financial needs, she decides to pursue a marriage of convenience. However, when she meets her first choice for a husband, widower Dr. Augustus Lawrence, she can't deny the spark between them. Augustus agrees to her proposal, with one condition: Jane must never visit Lindridge Hall, his isolated, rundown manor home. Instead, she is to live in the quarters above his practice. She complies—but as (bad) luck would have it, Jane becomes stranded at the door of Lindridge Hall on the very night of their wedding day. She finds Augustus a changed man from the one she married that morning, and his decrepit home full of unspeakable terrors. Can Jane solve the mystery of the manor and rescue the man she loves? Seasoned British actor and voice artist Mandy Weston narrates this delightfully dark tale of terror.</p></section><section class="block-wrapper_block-wrapper__uK_6b"><div class="md:mt-5 md:mb-5"><div

but not least on our list, this outstanding new work of Gothic romantic suspense is sure to thrill fans of the genre. Jane Shoringfield is a practical young woman with a head for numbers and no interest in matters of the heart. To satisfy societal conventions and her financial needs, she decides to pursue a marriage of convenience. However, when she meets her first choice for a husband, widower Dr. Augustus Lawrence, she can't deny the spark between them. Augustus agrees to her proposal, with one condition: Jane must never visit Lindridge Hall, his isolated, rundown manor home. Instead, she is to live in the quarters above his practice. She complies—but as (bad) luck would have it, Jane becomes stranded at the door of Lindridge Hall on the very night of their wedding day. She finds Augustus a changed man from the one she married that morning, and his decrepit home full of unspeakable terrors. Can Jane solve the mystery of the manor and rescue the man she loves? Seasoned British actor and voice artist Mandy Weston narrates this delightfully dark tale of terror.21:T52b,{\"@context\":\"https://schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"url\":\"https://www.audible.com/blog/article-gothic-fiction-explained\",\"headline\":\"What is Gothic Fiction?: A Genre Explainer\",\"descr"])</script><script>self.__next_f.push([1,"iption\":\"Dark, dramatic, and picturesque, gothic fiction is one of the most absorbing subgenres of literature.
