What was done with the ashes of Aleister Crowley? A: They were sent to his disciples. Q: Who released the gothically-toned landmark album 'Low' in 1977? A: David Bowie. Be the first to fill your plot with 13 gravestones, and you win! But beware of your double-crossing, grave-robbing opponents!

My family, friends and I just loved this game! The questions are amazingly well put together, drawn from every imaginable genre and source, and are often surprising. These brain teasers span decades of folklore, pop culture, urban legends, supersitions, classic horror and modern myth. No matter what the question or the source, it's all GOTH, and it's fantastic!
So much fun was had with this game. The board is small and simple but looks exactly like a Goth board game should. If you're anything like our family, you'll be more interested in the trivia and how much you didn't realize you know about Goth info than the board and the asthetics.
We bought this as a Halloween friends and family game, but I can tell we're going to be playing this game all year round. It's that good! If Goth, horror, and things that go bump in the night are your thing, you'll love this game!

I bought this game on a whim, and have had fun with it ever since! Think of it as trivial pursuit with gothic-themed questions. The object of the game is to fill your graveyard plot with 13 tombstones. To get tombstones, simply answer the questions read to you by the "inquisitor." The questions include categories such as morbid movies, "stiffs" (deceased), gothic music, and books. A lot of the movie questions seem to deal with older horror classics including Hammer horror films, and earlier black and white silent pics like the "Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" and "Nosferatu," as well as Vincent Price and Bela Lugosi films. Much of the music questions seem to come from 80's gothic music including Souxsie and the Banshees and some other early punk, metal, and goth bands. Book questions are geared towards Anne Rice, the Marquis de Sade, Edgar Allen Poe, and horror authors such as John Saul. True, some of the questions are rather random and don't seem very "goth" related, but for the most part they actually do have something to do with the goth subculture, or at least morbid curiosity. If you are newer to the gothic subculture, then some of the questions might be more difficult, as not very many of them deal with the current scene. Newer bands and movies aren't really mentioned. I would have given this game 5 stars if it had slightly more emphasis on the more current trends in all categories, but it still makes for hours of good, clean, creepy fun! Hint: If you have read "Goth Chic" by Gavin Baddeley, then you should know much of the material presented in this game!
I enjoyed it September 20, 2005

I've played alot of board games, but this one takes the cake. True, I didn't know very much to start with, but now I know a bit more than once before. It may be useless information, but if it ever comes up on a TV game show, you'll know it.
Goth: The Game of Horror Trivia January 6, 2009
K. Weekley (Idaho)
This was a Christmas present for my daughter. My husband and I played this game with her and her boyfriend as we thought we knew a lot about Horror. Boy were we wrong. This has some very obscure facts and is interesting though a long game for unless you know these obscure facts. It takes a bit of getting use to as everything is backwards from a regular board game, but very enjoyable. This is a must have for those that like games and horror.
