I'm impartial, so you like stories that are not just based on history or face but derived from imagination?
Yeah some are really good! do you have a favorite?
No favorites here although I can tell you that gothic fiction is largely known by subgenre Gothic horror, combines elements like death, fiction, horror, and sometimes romance.
Yeah like lovecraft?
Not sure about Lovecraft. Gothic fiction's origins is attributed to author Horace Walpole and his novel "The Castle of Otranto" which came out in 1764.
