Frankenstein or The modern Prometheus has gotic influence due to being wrtiten to cause panic, horror and terror over the reader.

The aspects that show this influence are the scenarios, in forests where the actions happen and the psychology of fear as the story develops and the creature is described as a green monster with a deformed body made with parts of corpses.
