In college, I took a class with Dr. Nina Auerbach (ob”m) about gothic stories and women and, while I can’t remember the title, the premise was that every gothic novel is the story of “girl meets house”. (Edit: found it! "https://www.english.upenn.edu/courses/undergraduate/2008/spring/engl290.401)
Catherine House is a beautifully unsettling addition to the genre. If The Magicians and Rebecca had a baby, it would look like this.
