se han levantado, lúgubres, en medio de los Apeninos
frown (of a thing): present a gloomy aspect (Oxford dictionary).
El original, sin embargo, es:
"The chateau into which my valet had ventured to make forcible entrance, rather than permit me, in my desperately wounded condition, to pass a night in the open air, was one of those piles of commingled gloom and grandeur which have so long frowned among the Apennines, not less in fact than in the fancy of Mrs. Radcliffe."
Por lo que la traducción sería entonces:
"...que durante tanto tiempo se han levantado, lúgubres, en medio de los Apeninos."

"se han alzado" quedaría mejor...

musitan/han musitado sombríamente entre los Apeninos
Fijate si hace falta realmente usar el pretérito perfecto en español; quizás quede mejor el presente (salvo que diga for/since o algún equivalente)
