![]() Perhaps the last type of novel in this mode was Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, published in 1847. The first Gothic horror novel was The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole, published in 1754. The Gothic novel is unique because by the time Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein, several novels had appeared using Gothic themes, but the genre had only been around since 1754. Instead, this novel is a compilation of Romantic and Gothic elements combined into a singular work with an unforgettable story. ![]() Frankenstein is by no means the first Gothic novel.
