Jane Austen's seven horrid gothic novels

[joysilence]

I'm sure we must have discussed this here before, but in Northanger Abbey Jane Austen mentions, in a rather facetious manner, seven "horrid novels" all of which were of course actual gothic novels.

The novels were The Castle of Wolfenbach, Clermont, Mysterious Warnings, The Necromancer of the Black Forest, Midnight Bell, Orphan of the Rhine and Horrid Mysteries.

So how many of these have you read? Do you recommend any of them?
