What is the Gothic writing style?

Question

I am reading Edgar Allan Poe. I was told that his writing style is Gothic. I wonder what the Gothic writing style is like.

Answer 1

The Gothic term in books is the tone that you receive from reading it. Gothic never lies in the setting of the novel such as a hounted house, or a graveyard. One may write a book about a hounted house but he or she may fail to make his/'her wording and tone dark and depressing, instead his writing/wording/toning may seem rather cheery and gleeful.
What makes a gothic book is the tone and style of writing, along with the setting, make the overall mood of your story dark.

Edgar Allan poe executes this perfectly, if you read the Tell Tale Hearts, the story is amazing, he is able to create a psychotic, gothic and sinister book that keeps the climax rising with every sentence. This story left me breathless.
When you think about it, what makes a gothic song sound so good? Is it the lyyrics? Sometimes, but if the depressing lyrics can be sung in a different tone and it'll sound more like an emo song rather than originally intended. But, when sung with the right tone of voice, it'll send chills down your spine.
Take for instance, The band Evanescence!
Take Amy Lee and swap her for someone like Britney Spears or Beyonce, what will the outcome be? Not good, i can tell you that.
It all lies within the mood created. Give a dark tone, wording, descriptions, meaning and setting and you have a gothic tale.

The Gothic genre requires certain elements, with terror (both physical and psychological) as the key element. Other features include haunted houses or castles, mystery and the supernatural, darkness and death, madness and family curses.
A well-known example of Gothic literature is 'The Fall of the House of Usher', by Edgar Allen Poe. Another is 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde', by Robert Louis Stevenson.
