Gothic horror is typically attributed to writers such as Horace Walpole, with his novel "The Castle of Otranto" published in 1764, often regarded as the first gothic novel. Gothic horror later evolved with authors like Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" and Bram Stoker's "Dracula" contributing to the genre's popularity.
