In this English Key Stage 3 study booklet there are:

  • Three sections
  • Fourteen pages 
  • Twelve extracts

Section 1: The Features of Gothic Literature
  • Settings
  • Motifs
  • Themes
  • Characters
Section 2: Writing About Gothic Literature
  • Literary Terms
  • Writing Revolution Stems
Section 3: Gothic Literature Extracts and Tasks
  • The Mysteries of Udolpho
  •  Christabel
  • Frankenstein
  • Dracula – Extract A
  • Dracula – Extract B
  • Dracula – Extract C
  • The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
  • The Grey Woman
  • The Hound of the Baskervilles
  • Great Expectations
  • Coraline
  • The Mistletoe Bride

The tasks for each extract are graduated in the sense that the focus is narrow at the start and there’s a big question at the end. I’ve also highlighted potentially unfamiliar words and defined them at the foot of each page.

I hope the resource is useful. All proceeds pay for the running costs of the site and keep it going – so thank you 🙏
