Abstract: This article deals with polymorphous features of Gothic narratives seen as stories about supernatural events. Polymorphism reveals itself as a property of a narrative to be reinterpreted in the same medium or in different ones, and the main event is thus retranslated either authentically (in detail or in a reduced form) or with modifications of the form and content of the original. The article also suggests a classification of polymorphous Gothic narratives.
