Can I get some recs for genuine Victorian Gothic literature? Not stuff set in that period but written later, stuff written in that period pl0x

I read picrel with a woman once. She could barely keep up with the plot or prose. When she decided she wanted to read chapter 2 she constantly mispronounced words. Felt each other up in the comfy library chairs though.

She could barely pronounce basic words like "solicitor" and stuff as an adult. It was hilarious and I felt like sharing the joke.

>The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794)
>Wieland; or, The Transformation (1798)
>The Monk (1796)
>Melmoth the Wanderer (1820)
>Undine (1811)
>Fall of the House of Usher (1839)
And for a really fucking long list, check out Lovecraft's essay on the history of gothic horror. He doesn't really say much but mention which ones he liked and give brief plot summaries, but you can probably dig through this and make an exhaustive list.

All but one of those are Pre Victorian.
What's with illiterate retards thinking Gothic Literature is "Victorian" when it is and always was a Georgian, 18th century literary movement whose books were primarily set in the middle ages and renaissance?

Why don't you stop being a retard who thinks books written in the 18th century are "Victorian"?
