The name "Gothic" comes from a kind of architecture from TheMiddleAges (built by a tribe called the Goths -- not [[{{Goth}} that kind]], obviously). There were a lot of Gothic ruins lying around Britain, and people in the 18th and 19th centuries developed an interest in them because (a) ruins are always kind of mysterious and melancholy and creepy and (b) they evoked the time period they were built in, which was thought of as a [[TheDungAges barbaric]] time where people believed in (and did) all kinds of weird stuff. For this reason, most early Gothic horror novels were set in that era. They were usually also set in Catholic countries, because the Brits who wrote them considered Catholicism [[ReligionOfEvil sinister]] (yet also kinda cool).

Gothic Horror is the oldest of the {{horror}} genres. On the Romanticism end of RomanticismVersusEnlightenment, it tends to play on both the thrill and the fear of the unknown, and places a great importance on atmosphere. In addition to being important to the horror genre, the first {{scifi}}, {{fantasy}}, {{romance}}, {{mystery}}, and {{adventure}} authors drew inspiration from Gothic horror, so it's sometimes considered the parent of all modern genre fiction.
