The Bohemiam Gothic Tarot Deck, Book & the Tarot Reader Limited Ed. Tarot Bag Set
The Deck
This cult deck is a deeply atmospheric set of cards that's steeped in the dark romanticism of Victorian Gothic fantasy. The imagery doesn't follow any stories exactly, instead it's designed to be evocative of the work of Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker, Sheridan Le Fanu, Mary Shelley, M. R. James, Henry James, Robert Louis Stevenson and their contemporaries.
When you use these cards, we leave you to imagine your own eerie and mysterious stories - if you dare!
- 79 fully-illustrated cards (including title card).
- Many changes from the earlier editions - these vary from slight alterations of colour to extensive reimagining of imagery.
