"The Mysteries of Udolpho" by Ann Radcliffe is a Gothic novel published in 1794. Young Emily St. Aubert endures a cascade of misfortunes after her parents' deaths, finding herself trapped in a sinister Italian castle controlled by the menacing Montoni.

This archetypal Gothic tale weaves romance, suspense, and dark mysteries through remote castles and haunted landscapes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
