I would recommend 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker. It's a classic gothic novel that has everything from a spooky castle, a menacing vampire, and a sense of impending doom. The characters are well - drawn, and the story is full of mystery and horror. It's a great introduction to the gothic genre as it combines elements of the supernatural with a Victorian - era setting that adds to the overall atmosphere.

One good way is to set a spooky scene. For example, describe a dark, decrepit castle on a stormy night. The thunder rumbles as the wind howls around the ancient turrets. This immediately creates an atmosphere of mystery and unease, drawing the reader in.
