In the ominous setting of The Castle of Otranto, fifteen-year-old Conrad dies tragically just before his wedding, prompting his father, Lord Manfred, to seek a drastic solution to salvage the family's honor by planning to marry Conrad's fiancée, Isabella, against her will. As Isabella escapes, Manfred pursues her, all while grappling with a centuries-old family curse that looms over their fates. This revised edition of a gothic classic showcases the genre's hallmark themes, including tyranny, virtue, and supernatural elements.
