Don't know if anyone can help. I used to have a book on Gothic literature. I think the title was Gothic tales of the supernatural or something like that. I remember the cover vividly. In the background was a burning Victorian mansion, and in the foreground was an emaciated Death like creature with black wings holding a scythe. It had excerpts from novels and some complete short stories including The Dead Planet by Edmond Hamilton. I think I lost my copy in my last move, or I stupidly got rid of it when I thinned out my bookshelves. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Well it doesn't have any Ed Hamilton but this one seems to fit the bill in most other respects. And then again it might be GHOSTS, CASTLES & VICTIMS: Studies in Gothic Terror edited by Jack C Wolf & Barbara H Wolf.
