Lots of Gothic Literature

I adore gothic literature and I know I'm not alone on that one, in fact I doubt there's one book lover amongst us who hasn't read at last a few of these whether they realised it was gothic or not. Therefore I spent the morning compiling as large as list as I could just of Gothic fiction. They are a mixture of classic and modern, novels, novellas and short stories. I have not read all of these myself, and have compiled this list using many other Internet sources, therefore it is upon the opinion of others that many of these books have been classified as Gothic. There may also be many others I've missed but I suppose that means I can make an updated version at a later date.
