There are classics in Southern Gothic too like The Legend of Sleepy Hollow or more modern classics like To Kill a Mockingbird, personally my favorite Southern Gothic author is Flannery O'Connor (in spite of her clear Christian leanings). One of the things that I prefer about it is that it isn't so fantastical, it has more of a magical realism, and it explores social problems, which most Gothic Lit kind of overlooks.
