The Setting The action takes place in and around an old castle or an old mansion, or the ruins of an old castle or mansion. Sometimes the building looks abandoned, sometimes occupied. The castle often contains secret passages, trap doors, secret rooms, dark or hidden staircases. Claustrophobia, echoes of unusual sounds, or mystery are key elements.

Gothic Nightmares: Fuseli, Blake and the Romantic Imagination | Tate Britain. Gothic Nightmares explores the work of Henry Fuseli (1741–1825) and William Blake (1757–1827) in the context of the Gothic – the taste for fantastic and supernatural themes which dominated British culture from around 1770 to 1830. Featuring over 120 works by these artists and their contemporaries, the exhibition creates a vivid image of a period of cultural turmoil and daring artistic invention.
The central exhibit is Henry Fuseli’s famous The Nightmare 1781. Ever since it was first exhibited to the public in 1782, this picture has been an icon of horror. Showing a woman supine in her boudoir, oppressed by a foul imp while a ferocious-looking horse glares on, the painting draws on folklore and popular culture, medicine, concepts of imagination, and classical art to create a new kind of highly charged horror image.
A selection of works by Fuseli’s contemporaries and followers, dealing with themes of fantasy, horror and perverse sexuality, complement his work.
