Gothic tourism is a growing phenomenon and a medium through which
Gothic fictions and folkloric tales are re-imagined and generated.
This book examines the complex relationship between contemporary
English Gothic attractions and storytelling, uncovering how works
of Gothic fiction can both inspire Gothic tourism and emerge from
the spaces of Gothic tourism, contending that Gothic tourist
attractions are multi-layered storytelling experiences.
Contributing to the study of literature and place, Gothic Literary
Travel and Tourism draws together the study of literary Gothic
tourism and spatial philosophy, offering interdisciplinary analysis
into the interface between Gothic narrative(s) and the spaces in
which the tourist navigates. The storytelling practices taking
place in Gothic caves, theme parks, ghost tours and rural walks
serve to reflect contemporary fears and anxieties. This book
situates the act of touring a Gothic site as a process of literary
and social discovery.
