Wells and The Signalman – Charles Dickens. The stories that I am going to analyse in this essay are The Red Room – H. The atmosphere and themes of gothic fiction stories is usually awkward, tense and the writer usually uses omniscient narrator to keep the tension and suspense going throughout the story. Most gothic stories have certain features such as darkness, suspense and the use of colour red.
Gothic mysteries type stories would have emphasised mystery and horror. Gothic mysteries usually have unusual settings, for example an isolated castle, near the railway etc. This is a type of gothic fiction that existed around the late eighteenth century and the early nineteenth century. These short stories that I am writing about are called gothic mysteries.
