21 Christmas Gift Ideas For The Goth In Your Life
And all through the house, not a creature was stirring... except for a few pastel goths on Tumblr.
1. Chalkboard Skull - $28.00
Everyone needs a chalkboard skull. Use it to write sweet nothing to your boo boo, jot down phone numbers, or announce the night's menu. Or just fill it with curse words. I don't know your life.

For the Poe fan and discerning tea drinker, a gift set that includes "Midnight Dreary" herbal tea blend, a muslin bag, and a pretty tea ball decorated with a raven charm.

So elegant, so refined, Baphomet approves. Available in pink or black.
4. Memento Mori Teeth Ring - $165.00
Made with "dead stock" (mwaha) porcelain teeth on a brass and sterling setting, this ring will get GUMS FLAPPING. I'm so sorry.
