An exploration of Gothic tourism's interweaving of site and story. This book investigates the relationship between contemporary Gothic tourist sites and Gothic fiction, contending that the tourist attractions are storytelling spaces. Famous Gothic texts such as Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey are reimagined in contemporary literary Gothic tourism, as Gothic attractions serve as spaces wherein multiple intersecting Gothic narratives come to life--from folkloric tales to local ghost stories.
