'''Gothic Horror''' is one of the oldest of the [[Horror]] genres. [[Darker and Edgier|Darker, edgier]] and on the [[Romanticism]] end of [[Romanticism Versus Enlightenment]], it tends to play on both the thrill and the fear of the unknown, and places a great importance on atmosphere. It's usually heavily [[Rule of Symbolism|symbolic]], sometimes even dreamlike. In addition to being important to the horror genre, the first [[Sci Fi]], [[Fantasy]], [[Romance]], [[Mystery]], and [[Adventure]] authors drew inspiration from Gothic horror, so it's sometimes considered the parent of all modern genre fiction.
