Vampire fiction is a subgenre of the Gothic, although contemporary vampire literature mixes Gothic elements with other genres, such as horror, sci‐fi, fantasy, and even romance novel. The vampire myth, derived from Slavic folklore, made its remarkable literary appearance in the late eighteenth century. The gloomy and mysterious atmospheres of the Gothic novel shaped vampiric imagery in its two crucial aspects: the construction of the vampire as the Gothic villain and the construction of the setting of the classic vampire novel.
