The American Gothic decentralizes by exposing malaise and reflects the widespread mistrust of the masses. This Element theorizes the democratic and anti-democratic elements of the American Gothic by surveying the conflicted imaginaries of the genre's mainstays, including Charles Brockden Brown, George Lippard, Shirley Jackson, and Stephen King.
