What do you think is the most important quality of gothic stories? Is it the ability to shock and frighten or the ability to create suspense and mystery.. Explain

What are gothic stories? Well gothic stories are stories basically like the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. In the poem it had some supernatural stuff in it and that's basically one quality of something being considered a gothic story. It is the ability to create suspense and mystery because when something unreal happens the author of the story makes the reader feel as if something creepy is going to happen, so the reader kind of gets excited about wanting to know but the author makes the reader lead to suspense.
