'A celebration of darkness' Anjelica Huston

'There's a bit of goth in us all' Kate Moss

Amidst the waking nightmares of our present day, the solace of goth looms to soothe our morbid anxieties.

Permeating pop culture at every juncture - fashion, art, music, film, beauty - what was once shrouded in mystery has now slipped into the mainstream.

Attempting to make sense of all the madness, this grimoire serves as a manual for the modern goth, as they navigate the pentagram of life. Held within its pages are an inventory of undead icons throughout the ages, from Wednesday Addams to Siouxsie Sioux, as well as style and beauty advice for each stage of a goth's life. Plus, notes on what films to watch, music to wallow to and books to take with you to the grave.

To illuminate the darkness further, we hear from notable goths and goth-coded individuals such as Anjelica Huston, Christina Ricci, Michèle Lamy, Amelia Gray and more on what this eldritch culture means to them.

Welcome to the season of the witch.
