Episode 16 - Dr Nicole C Dittmer and Sophie Raine - Penny Dreadfuls and the Gothic In this episode I'm joined by Nicole and Sophie, who have a forthcoming collection called Penny Dreadfuls and the Gothic; or, Investigations of Pernicious Tales of Terror. We chat about how their individual interests in the Gothic emerged, how they came to work together on their collection, and some tidbits about what we'll read! They also provide fantastic examples of things to watch or read, both modern and 19th century. We also chat about what they think about the enduring fascination with the 19th century.
