This is literally the cover to my edition of Elizabeth Gaskell's Gothic Tales, so I guess that.
I'm already reading Moby Dick (this image reminds me of the Nantucket town before Ishmael and Queequeg set sail), but other books in a similar style to this painting would be most appreciated.

"Necronomicon", by "Simon" (likely pseudonym).
It is a popular hoax-occult item commonly available in RL Barnes and Noble sections, and blends Crowley, Lovecraft, Sumeria and spellcasting in a rather strict and unforgiving milleu.

Maybe read about those Greek myths where the insane wild women follow Dyonisus and sprint about the hills tearing animals apart
Mythology has some parts on those
>Oh, sweet upon the mountain
>The dancing and the singing,
>The maddening rushing flight.
>Oh, sweet to sink to earth outworn
>When the wild goat has been hunted and caught,
>Oh, the joy of the blood and the raw flesh!
apparently what they were supposedly singing while ravaging their prey
not exactly living with lions and whatnot but this is pretty much what we are going for here isn't it
