Whitby Goth Weekend Halloween October 2022

[@BlackDahlia776]

The Fancy Dress Brigade have taken over the Goth Festival which originally was for lovers of the Goth lifestyle and music.

[@lloydspendlove4114]

Only during the day, hardly anyone in fancy dress in the evenings at the gigs we were at, strange that!!

[@landyandy4x4]

Maybe but it's still a great weekend.

[@jenb1616]

It is halloween weekend after all, you're bound to get a mix. It's nice to see people enjoy themselves and their visit.

[@moodylittleowl]

literally nothing stops you from going to the gigs...just grab your tickets early because most get sold out fast

[@benfletcher9659]

Joe Public have taken over.

[@tobyd352]

Nice to see you fitting in so well and the mask is great, very scary

[@landyandy4x4]

Well it was Halloween!

[@dianneguy9004]

Saw them a few years ago they are amazing and such fun all very friendly we had a great week there.

[@landyandy4x4]

Yes I love it too , that's the first time I went at Halloween.

[@LeisureBit]

Cracking video, was a great weekend in Whitby! Some fantastic outfits. The view from the 199 steps is great. The cars / vans along the road at the bottom of the steps caused chaos. A fab weekend, as you say they really put some effort into the costumes. All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@landyandy4x4]

Thanks

[@sandramalone9977]

yeah, very inconsiderate them people in cars and vans, going about their daily business how dare they! Didn't see very many goths in that video though, just plenty of fancy dress & I bet not many locals amonst the crowds. Interesting video though, thanks.

[@williamsutch3039]

thats still a functioning road actually for residents believe it or not!

[@doonewatts7155]

That was so good thank you. Loved the scouts pushing through lol. And the weather was near perfect needed a howling gale to make it proper goth

[@landyandy4x4]

Thanks

[@calsurflance5598]

[@landyandy4x4]

Nice

[@spark_6710]

This is awesome !! Lol. Halloween 🎃 is my no.1 favourite holiday of the year !! And it's in beautiful Whitby !! I've been wanting to visit there !! I wonder if they have a colour scheme / theme every year to do this !? They are so coordinated ! I guess not colour schemed ! Nice ,very nicely done !! I live in L.A.& we're very known for the West Hollywood Halloween parade & celebration. But ,you guys are more fun ,I think !! Although ,here we see real elaborated, movie actor like jobs done on make ups & decorations like movie set here !! They spend tons of money for it ,too ! But,there seeing that breathtaking ocean view & beautiful streets of Witby at the same time is equally nice !!👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️💕💞

[@landyandy4x4]

Nice I'll be over there next year so I might film that too ,thanks

[@spark_6710]

@@landyandy4x4 Oh you'll have a blast !! Guaranteed ! I thought everybody knew the world famous West Hollywood Halloween parade !!? Lol. They party all day on Halloween here !! Lol. If you drive here ,get there early like 4, 5 pm to secure your parking spot as the streets are blocked in the area after 4 pm ,or so every year on Halloween for that .And parking lots charge you $ 20 to $30 ?to park in L.A.on holidays !! Thank you so much for this video & your reply !! 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🇬🇧💕💞

[@subansuwannarat4235]

Used to run up the steps turn around and run back down , but that was over 50 years ago ,was at the very first folk festival in the 60s, lived there a number of years , but now in Asia the last 30

[@landyandy4x4]

run ? i've never herd of that dark magic !

[@tobyd352]

Was the heavy breathing at the top of the abbey stairs for Halloween effect?

[@landyandy4x4]

Of course it's nothing to do with the very very nice women 😉🙂

I totally love Whitby and the goth weekend are such fun

[@landyandy4x4]

I agree it's so cool .

[@synthpop1505]

“I disliked Whitby and the Goths; the place I found wet and the people rude. They had the fine qualities which bore me - thrift and industry and long-faced holiness, and the young women are mostly great genteel boisterous things who are no doubt bedworthy enough if your taste runs that way. (One acquaintance of mine who had a Goths clergyman’s daughter described it as like wrestling with a sergeant of dragoons.) The men I found solemn, hostile, and greedy, and they found me insolent, arrogant, and smart.”

[@kirstyhostick2159]

Well then, I doubt very much that it was "goths" that you crossed paths with but merely posers (people in fancy dress)

[@landyandy4x4]

Yes it was wet and I never had a problem with rude people at all .
