8. Gothic Horror Literature
Early gothic novels brought a new standard to literature and some of our favorite elements of romance and horror began with gothic tales. Learn more about the essence of the gothic in literature.

9. Types of Horror Fiction
Organizing horror literature is tricky but there are two basic types - that of the supernatural world and that of the real, or non-supernatural, world. Within those basic types we can break it down even farther to find what we are looking for.
