Introduction
For my next University task I have been given the category 'Gothic Horror', I am so excited to start this as I love all fiction/myths/monsters anything abnormal. I have been given a range of Gothic horror books which I have to choose one and identify a character that draws my attention, I must gather as much information as I can on this character and this will be the start of my Make-up look.
The Books I have to choose from are;
- The Picture of Dorian Grey - Oscar Wilde
- Dracula - Bram Stoker
- Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
- The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde - Robert Louis Stevenson
- Frankenstein - Mary J Shelley
- The Fall of the House of Usher - Edgar Allan Poe
- The Turn of the Screw - Henry James
- The Castle of Otranto - Horace Walpole
- The Mysterious of Uldolpho - Ann Radcliffe
- The Monk - Matthew Gregory Lewis
- Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte
- Northanger Abbey - Jane Austin
- Vathek - William Beckford
- Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte
- Carmilla - Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu
I think these all are very interesting reads but I am gong to look more in detail to get a feel of what the books entail before I choose one to read, I have heard of a few and have read 'Mary J Shelley's- Frankenstein' but I want to read something new and choose a character from scratch.
