I liked the ‘gothic horror fiction’ section of the course. I found it interesting that so many short stories can be considered gothic horror. Some of course were typical like ‘Tell-Tale Heart’ others were questionable like “The Lottery”. But the romantic qualities that were also added into gothic horror fiction were interesting; Candles, Castles, and Lace Cloth. When it came to the short stories or gothic horror, I chose a short story. I didn’t exactly feel like adding in gothic horror elements. I’m sure zombies could have been an element, but I was just worried I didn’t have enough elements in it. You can judge for yourself in my story “A Zombie Nightmare.
