Description Of course, the majority of Goths are unique in their style and music preferences. However, within the subculture there are certain "types" of Goth with particular characteristics. And it can be fun to classify them. Naturally, classifications for each "type" vary from person to person, so you may disagree with what I say here!

This was actually a suggestion from a fellow deviant. And I'm very glad he/she suggested it - I'm pleased with the result And this was very fun to draw!

On a separate note, this is now the third time I've drawn a Goth with a cigarette. Honestly, I'm not trying to promote a smoking in the Goth community - so, kids, don't do it. It bad for you, it makes your clothes smell, and it's expensive - think of all the clothes and music you could buy with the money spent on cigarettes. So no, don't smoke. Not even cloves.

But pretending to smoke with cool cigarette holder is fine

You seem like the sort of person who would enjoy the New Orleans BINGO! Show. It's a combination of Cabaret and Carnival goths. Well, it's literally a cabaret, but with the elements of the carnival as well. Since New Orleans is a big carnival, and everyone knows it.

Brace yourself for more debauchery than you think you can handle, then. You can drink in public, so people tend to get... weird. And I don't mean, like, different from the normies who will easily bore me to death, I mean, like, shitfaced wasted at 2 PM on a Wednesday walking around in the park with their friends. Because that sort of thing is OK here. But yeah, my dad is Cabaret Goth, and my mom is somewhere between Hippie Goth and Renaissance Goth, but I was raised by the least spooky people you will ever know, so I came out somewhere near Rivethead and Emo with Hippie tendencies and Geeky hobbies and the budget for the wardrobe of a Dressed Down goth. Those boots are like $89 at the cheapest, and I just don't have that kind of money to throw around... yet.
But yeah, there's three shops pretty much one block apart selling all the goth clothing and accessories, and they're not Hot Topic or Spencers, which is nice. Also on the same street are at least four witchcraft shops and two voodoo shoppes. And that's just one street. There's so much good spooky stuff down in the quarter, but it's just always overflowing with drunken tourists there for Rue Bourbon, and that is legitimately disappointing.

I'm impressed how your writing on these Goth (Stereo)Types can point out the pros and cons of each type, yet I always come away from each drawing with an overall positive impression of each type. Considering how catty many goths get when they're trying to classify one another, your series here demonstrates some really impressive writing!

this is what happens when a typical goth and a drama club member become high school sweethearts.

I'm not a fan of stereotypes, but this can help finding your own unique style and fitting clothes. I wish there was a famous cabaret Gothic (as in "Gothic who does cabaret"), that would be so awesome!

Dark Caveret genere is really enjoyable. ;D

Sooo, I just finished reading ALL of your goth stereo types. I find them very amusing and accurate (accurate as to what people make them) (i'm not into the whole "stereotyping" thing)

I also find it very amusing that I could fit into every one of these "types" hahaha

Anyways...I really like your series and hope so see more from you soon

(and I think you might have mentioned something about it...but you should make one of these for the "horror type" goth....i know you mentioned something about the goths that are into horror music and old cheesy horror movies....but i think you should go a little deeper into it and like...well. i don't know how to explain it XD hahaha)


I love this your amazing good job!

Awesome. Another of my favourite goth looks.

At least she's got the cigarette on the end of one of those long holders, which means some the nasty carcinogenic gunk from the cigarette is going into coating her cigarette holder rather than her lungs.

The Dresden Dolls rock.
