Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: THE CASTLE OF OTRANTO is the famous 1764 novel by Horace Walpole. It is generally regarded as the first gothic horror novel ever written, starting a literary genre which would become extremely popular in the later 18th and early 19th century, and right on to this day.
It is hard to fully grasp what a tremendous influence this novel must have had on all horror writers who were to follow as the forerunner to books by such authors as Ann Radcliffe, Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe and Daphne du Maurier, and by extension, what a debt it is owed for the development of today's modern horror novel.
The book was an instant bestseller and is still a must-read for all readers of horror, both as a curiosity and as a cracking good horror tale.
