Best answer!
Good themes for conventional Gothic stories are the classics--Frankenstein (the Promethean story about man becoming like god and suffering for it) Dracula (blood sucking terror of greed and revenge-or what I like to call anti-change) Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (the story of how technology changes the character of man and how man thinks he can go back at anytime) Werewolf! (another great story about how the change of man's character) Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, and The Time Machine are all Gothic era stories that tells us about the greatest fear of that time--change.
or may be this
Tragic romance
Vampire love
Revenge
Lust
Tortuous pasts
Desire
Obsession
