Abstract
The following paper tackles Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and his novel Carmilla with the intention of proving it to be a true gothic story. Le Fanu's work has had a major influence on gothic fiction overall as well contributing to it in various manners. What is particular about one of his most influential work, Carmilla, is the incorporation of a female vampire, as well as homosexual attraction. Although Le Fanu is not as recognized as, for example, Bram Stoker and his Dracula, one will, through this work, understand his major influence which helped in developing this archetypal vampire. Today the subgenre of vampire fiction is widespread, and one may find its origins in the gothic literature works which saw a flourish in the second half of the 18th century. This paper comprehensively accounts for the genre in general, tackling as well the subgenre of vampire fiction, crucial for understanding and analyzing Carmilla. Carmilla is thoroughly analyzed through citations accompanied by my own reflections in order to assert its gothic tale constituents. Paragraphs taken from the mentioned work are most picturesque and provide a joyous journey through the narrative.
