“The Monk, a Romance” by Matthew Gregory Lewis, 1818 ”Matthew Lewis’s novel The Monk (1796) marked a turning point in the history of Gothic literature. With its emphasis firmly on the horrific and the shocking, the book moved Gothic away from the gentle terrors of earlier authors such as Horace Walpole and, instead, confronted readers with an onslaught of horror in the form of spectral bleeding nuns, mob violence, murder, sorcery and incest. Unsurprisingly the book met with outrage and condemnation from critics. Equally unsurprisingly it was hugely popular with the public. With its twin themes of erotic obsession and the corrupting influence of power, The Monk deals with important issues and contains moments of impressive psychological insight. At heart, however, it remains a morality tale about one man’s fall from grace through greed, pride and lust. The edition shown here is a heavily abbreviated version of the novel published sometime around 1818.” Source

here’s my idea for a movie character: he’s a stereotypical wizened old wizard, im talking long grey beard and robes and staff of power and everything, who has legends told of his incredible power and the first half of the movie is the rest of the characters looking for this guy to help them defeat the evil fuck lord

the twist is that they reach the dread fortress or whatever and they start fighting fuck lord’s minions and the wizard just throws his staff aside and whips a glock out of his robes and guns them down
