Several of Daniels books have "apparent" supernatural elements in them, e.g. ghosts, elves, etc. Generally, once the mystery is solved, we discover that these supernatural elements were, in fact, natural phenomena. Nevertheless, the ISFDB includes such books within their scope. Other books by Daniels are "Gothic Novels" but do not include such apparent supernatural elements, and such books are not included within the scope of the ISFDB.
Daniels wrote more than 150 books, at least 114 of which are "Gothic novels", so this bibliographical page of hers is expected to be incomplete. A tentative placement of her books into three categories, based on data from Reginald3 and (too heavily) based on the publisher's descriptions of the books, is as follows:
