One characteristic is the rich historical backdrop. These novels often use real historical periods like Victorian England or the Middle Ages to add depth. For example, in many works, the social hierarchy and class differences of the time play a big role in the mystery. Another is the complex characters. Detectives or protagonists are often well - developed with their own quirks and motives. Also, the use of local settings, such as old English manors or fog - filled London streets, creates an atmosphere that is both spooky and intriguing.
