Just in case you still need help... A good starting point for your topic would be Fisher, Benjamin: Poe and the Gothic tradition. In The Cambridge Companion to Edgar Allan Poe Ed. by Kevin Hayes. Cambridge 2002

if it isn't to late already you could start with the penny bloods (the castle of otrano, the string of pearls...)
then there's melmoth the wanderer (written by oscar wilde's grand uncle but hardly barable in the middle...)
... that's all I can thinkg of right now, sorry
