Horace Walpole’s seminal work, The Castle of Otranto: A Gothic Story, is celebrated as the first supernatural English novel and a cornerstone of Gothic fiction. Framed as a mysterious Italian tale from the dark Middle Ages, the narrative thrusts us into the troubled realm of Manfred, the prince of Otranto, whose dread of an ominous prophecy plunges his fate into disarray. Following the grotesque death of his only son, Conrad, on his wedding day, Manfred resolves to claim the bride-to-be, setting in motion a series of harrowing events. As the virtuous Isabella flees through a labyrinthine castle filled with secret passages, the story weaves together chilling coincidences, ghostly visitations, and arcane revelations with dramatic combat, ensuring a relentless atmosphere of terror and suspense. This 2014 paperback edition by Oxford University Press offers a fresh perspective on a classic that has forever influenced modern horror and Gothic literature.
