I finished reading Dracula (Bram Stoker) for the first time and I want something similar but more of the stalked by monsters feeling when Johnathan is in the castle.
I love vampires, ghosts, supernatural, ghouls, etc. I also love the setting, old English writing style though that’s not a requirement. I would prefer a setting that is not modern though.
Thanks!

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones. It’s a fun take on a classic horror trope by one of the most interesting writers in genre fiction today.
* _The Castle of Otranto_ by Horace Walpole
* _The Mysteries of Udolpho_ by Ann Radcliffe
* _The Monk_ by Matthew Lewis
* _Frankenstein_ by Mary Shelley
* _Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde_ by Robert Louis Stevenson
* Short stories of Edgar Allan Poe
* _In a Glass Darkly_ by J. Sheridan LeFanu (stories)
I think these, along with _Dracula_, are the main classic English-language works you’d want on a syllabus centered on your theme.
