I'm a huge fan of Wilkie Collins, who wrote many gothic mysteries.
Most of tihe books you mention I have read, when I was working on my Ph.D in English Literature.
"The Monk" is an especially labyrinthine tale, and a wonderful read. [Correction: I was thinking of "Melmoth The Wanderer," by Charles Maturin - a wonderful gothic novel, full of twists and tales-within-tales.]

Did you have any difficulty keeping track of what was going on when you read it? I have this in paperback but I haven't gotten around to reading it * --partly because it seems a little intimidating when you pick up a random page and find the tale of a completely different character.
* My TBR pile is large both physically and virtually.
