Type “goth” into Vox Groups and you’ll see that the World is indeed a strange and scary place. Instead we offer you here at Closet Goth a safe, dark haven where you can be your hidden, gothic self.

This group is for all of you “closet goths” out there - Those of you who quite like The Cure but hide your Marilyn Manson CDs from your parents; those of you who wear a lot of black and purple; those of you who have always fancied getting a tattoo, or a piercing, but never quite got around to it. Dare I say it, for those of you who would like to spend more time in graveyards but are afraid of what your friends might think….

If you sleep in a coffin, are au fait with the Tarot, think Cradle of Filth are too commercial and claim to be a vampire then you may find this group a touch “mundane”. However, stick around as we are thinking of starting a mentoring program to help people out of the closet and you may be just the sort of people we need to hold up as a light-absorbing example.
