Answer:

"1. The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole (1764)

This is the novel that started it all. Horace Walpole’s short, snappy novel was published 250 years ago and by subtitling it "a Gothic story" he inadvertently coined a style of writing that is still going strong today. The Castle of Otranto is the very definition of a page-turner: unrelenting action and a check-list of the best Gothic tropes – a crumbling castle, an increasingly deranged tyrant, tense pursuits, frightening spectres, mistaken identities, murder … the list goes on and on. Iconic and rip-roaring, Walpole’s masterpiece deserves all the attention it can get."
