This is the very first gothic novel. The setting is during the medieval ages. Manfred's son
is killed by a giant helmet that seemingly fell from the sky. This tale is complete with
brave men, beautiful ladies, romance, mystery, a castle under an ancient curse, hidden
passageways, and ghosts. The main character, Manfred, is the type of fellow that a reader
loves to hate. There is a mystery about the castle. The secret is finally revealed upon the
arrival of the Knight of the Gigantic Saber. Walpole claims that he found this story in an
ancient manuscript and that he is merely the translator of the document.
Package includes study guide, answer keys, and vocabulary quizzes.
