In a remote Italian castle, the heir to the lordship of Otranto meets a tragic fate when a massive helmet falls from the sky and crushes him on his wedding day. This mysterious event sets off a chain of supernatural occurrences and sinister schemes as the tyrannical Lord Manfred, desperate to maintain his grip on power, seeks to secure the castle and its fortunes. Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto [1764] is widely regarded as the pioneering work of Gothic fiction in English literature. Combining elements of horror, romance, and the supernatural, Walpole's novel established the genre's enduring tropes of dark, atmospheric settings and melodramatic plot twists. Its influence can be seen in subsequent Gothic literature, from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to Bram Stoker's Dracula, shaping the way writers explore themes of fear, desire, and the uncanny.
