Gothics by Fantasy writers - RareMale - 12-05-2013

I picked up a Gothic by Marion Zimmer Bradley (Castle Terror) a few weeks ago, and I aready have a few by Andre Norton, Anne McCaffrey, and Fritz Lieber, does anyone know of any other Fantasy/Science Fiction writers who wrote Gothic / Romantic Suspense novels?

I wish I could think of more. Can you post the titles of the ones you've found so far?

OK, let's see:
Castle Terror by Marion Zimmer Bradley
The White Jade Fox and Snow Shadow by Andre Norton
The Mark of Merlin and The Kilternan Legacy by Anne McCaffrey
Conjure Wife by Fritz Lieber
I think Conjure Wife is a witchcraft story marketed as Gothic, but there's nothing unusual about that. Maybe we need a Voodoo/Witchcraft/Devil Worshipper Gothic thread?

If you do, I could name a few titles that would fall under that thread and the authors vary from traditional gothic novelists to mystery writers and horror authors.

Also by MZB that fall into the Gothic category:
Dark Satanic
Drums of Darkness (Zodiac Gothic)
