Bookish Monday : World Goth Day

 World Goth Day is celebrated each year on may 22nd.

As today is Bookish Monday, I thought I'd honour both days by sharing a few Gothic tomes with you...

The cover illustration alone is just perfect - this book is filled with tales of the macabre such as The Fly, Raspberry Jam, and much more, written by the likes of Bram Stoker and Noel Langley.


This old classic is filled with macabre tales by Poe, Lovecraft and Irving - to name but a few.


More classic horror, written by two greats - Masterton and Donnelly.


A Panther Horror by H R .Lovecraft - which contains a selection of his finest tales.


An array of spooky paperbacks - and some sci-fi, too - all perfect reads for World Goth Day.


And this final collection - Stephen King, Wilkie Collins, James Herbert, and a tome filled with horror by even more greats.


Each of the books within this post can be found in the "Haunted Library" section of my Etsy shop. 

I hope you celebrated World Goth Day in your own fabulous way, whether you were reading spooky tales, watching creepy films, listening to a favourite band or something live, going out for walks or getting dressed up and going out-out - I just hope it was fun! 

Tonight we're seeing Alice Cooper and The Cult in Swansea Arena - ♥
