I'm looking for an old-style looking serif-type font for use with gothic horror stories like those from Edgar Allen Poe.

Anyone got any ideas of a good one?
Can you name any proprietary fonts that are similar to what you're looking for? Not sure what "old-style" means.

(And there aren't likely to be any "public domain" fonts, although "free, open-source, creative commons" are all possible. Copyright is going to apply to any computer font unless the creator has specifically released it.)
