Description

Gothic Tourism by Emma McEvoy explores the fascinating world of Gothic tourism, examining its aesthetics and origins, as well as its connections to literature, film, folklore, heritage management, arts programming, and the 'edutainment' industry. This lively study delves into the complexities of this popular tourist activity. From Strawberry Hill to The Dungeons, Alnwick Castle to Barnageddon, McEvoy considers how Gothic tourism has evolved over time, influencing our perceptions of history, culture, and entertainment. By examining the intersections between tourism, literature, and popular culture, McEvoy sheds new light on the ways in which we experience and interpret the past. Through a critical analysis of the industry's growth and development, McEvoy provides a nuanced understanding of Gothic tourism's significance in contemporary society.
