"To speak my adoration for you would be to wake a raging storm, and I have finally, finally learned to love the quiet." -Henry
EVERYBODY GET MORE GOTH NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Genuine question: is there an instruction manual for that?
Do you find beauty in darker themes of literature and art?
Or music that expresses melancholy?
Or music that has themes of the macabre, the unnatural, or darkness? (Or maybe vampires.)
Do you appreciate dramatic aesthetics?
Congratulations, you can consider yourself a goth. Or goth-adjacent. Yes, there’s the wide range of clothing, makeup, and aesthetics that you can explore (and I 100% encourage you to do that), but you don’t have to. While goth has a lot of visual signifiers, it’s the things I listed above that are key to the goth mindset.
Shameless Self-Promotion time! For more help and information, you could go purchase a copy of Gothic Charm School: An Essential Guide for Goths and Those Who Love Them.
Gothic Charm School, just like my username. 😁
Might as well continue the shameless self-promotion and reblog this. :)
FYI, some of the information or references may be outdated, as the book was published in 2009. (aaaaaah linear time freaks me out!)
There's also the Gothic Charm School site, with all sorts of other articles! The last update was in May of last year; I'm hoping to return to writing and updating the site, but migraines and my chronic health issues keep thwarting my attempts.

It is said that in the South, the Spanish moss hangs in the relentless humidity like the hair of women who drowned for love.
