Quick Hint for how to engage with Gothic Horror
Don't judge the characters for their actions. Like, just don't. You'll end up in a moral swamp if you do. You'll start measuring the bad and that's not great.
Judge the characters for their justifications. Judge them for their ability to change.
Gothic literature asks you to explore the psychology and macabre of humanity. Horror asks you to explore the darkness and limits of it. Together they ask you to explore the darkness and limits of our minds, and the horrors that live there.
