Which of the following is a common element of Gothic literature?

  1. Supernatural entities

  2. Romance

  3. Realism

  4. Formal syntax

The correct answer is: Supernatural entities

Gothic literature is known for dark and mysterious settings, supernatural events and occurrences, and elements of horror. This makes option A, supernatural entities, a common element of this genre. Option B, romance, is not a defining aspect of Gothic literature. Option C, realism, is also not a common element in this genre as it often includes fantastical and supernatural elements. Option D, formal syntax, does not define Gothic literature as it is typically characterized by a dark and atmospheric writing style, rather than a formal one. Therefore, A is the most fitting and accurate choice for this question.
