The correct answer is C. By forcing physical terror upon Frankenstein

Explanation:

Gothic horror is a literary subgenre that combines horror, fiction and other elements such as death and romance. In this genre, it is common to find supernatural creatures or monsters, decaying settings, evil characters, elements related to fear, among others. The excerpt shown belongs to the book Frankenstein by Mary Shelley that tells the story of a scientist called Victor Frankenstein who creates a hideous creature during an experiment, this book has been considered as one of the most representative of this Gothic horror during the 19th century.

In the excerpt shown the description of the monster as a supernatural creature is provided as Victor Frankenstein sees it for the first time emphasizing on the terror of Victor and describing the monster with "jaws open", "muttered some inarticulate sounds" and "wrinkled his cheeks" that aims at transmitting the terror the creatures inspires in Victor. Thus, in the excerpt, Shelley creates Ghotic horror by forcing physical terror (as the monster is described physically) upon Frankenstein who is watching the monster and started from sleep with horror and having physical reactions such as "teeth chattered" or "a cold dew covered my forehead" that shows how terror is physical.
