Since it’s the month of October, it is a great time to get acquainted with one of the most interesting (which happens to be a favorite of mine) genres in literature -- Gothic literature! Today you will create your own story using sentence clues from what I give you during our class. To gain some context, here are some of the essential characteristics of the genre.
Decaying, haunted setting
Mysterious architecture and surroundings externally and internally
Encounters with the supernatural and/or the beyond
Curses, generational tales, and prophecies
Intense emotion and reactions to what is occurring
Showcases of the “horror” in life - the grotesque, the unexpected, and the unrealistic
Showcases of the “terror” in life - What hides in plain sight coming to life, preying on one’s fear and anxieties, and what lies in the subconscious (what we don’t actively think about.)
*You should have about one to two paragraphs by the time we finish our meeting. For your independent work, you should continue your story to make it a few pages in length. (2-3 pages double-spaced.)
