Yes! I am a romantic goth here in America and often stop by old catholic churches because they are so beautiful. Most of them have gift shops for rosaries and holy water canteens as well as crosses, chains and holy metals.

[@kittyestes3656]

Church Rummage sales are amazing for Crucifixes I went to an old lady rummage sale and they were 25 cents.

[@RandomGothCouple]

I would buy them all!

[@lestatsluv317]

I am Pagan and I have wanted Rosary Beads I could wear all of my life. I had a set that was given to American and British soldiers in WWI but you couldn't wear them because they were broken. However, my baby sister loved them so I gave her the beads and the tiny pocket Bible also handed out to soldiers in WWI. So there went my beads. Lmao "All Goths love candles!" This is a statistical fact. I mean, no one has actually done a study on this but I can't think of a Goth that would deny it and I have been at this a long time (I'm old... lmao). 😂 I wish I could afford the Gothic Beauty box. I love that the magazine is still going. I would love the stuff. Maybe one day...lol Much love to you both! I hope you have an amazing holiday season and here's hoping somehow... someway...2025 is our collective best year yet. 💜🎄❄️🕯️

I got my GF some Tarot Cards. She said for a few days that she wants a deck again but that they work when given not bought. So i solved that issue XD

I've got skulls flying out my arse as my father was an ecologist. Should I decorate them or pass them on to gothic mates? I think they are neat and have them mounted on the walls, but I recon they'd be more fun for mates 😆 They are currently mounted in the gaming/ media room!

We used to go to a Priest supply shop for rosaries and such. I think they are called liturgical accessory shops. "Church Merch" is better. I always enjoy your recommendations. I have a set of four foot high candlesticks that were for the feet and head of a casket. Have to get some nice candles for them.

[@cammie72]

Most of the churches in my area don't have gift shops but a couple do have charity shops associated with them and you can find rosaries. We have something called Saint Vincent de Paul's where you can find crosses and rosaries. Sometimes you can get them free at hospitals. Go to the hospital chapel.

[@stefannichols4241]

Tapers are the candles that go in candelabras.

[@RandomGothCouple]

Thank YOU! My god the word just left my brain haha the store flying tiger always has a wide selection of colours and very cheap. Filled every candelabra we own in one trip

Medieval Church merch was the most goth. You could get saints' bones and everything. Looking forward to the book episode!

[@elizabethlynch6544]

Goth Craft by Raven Digitalis and Gothic Charm School by Jillian Venters are my favorite Goth books, also Aurelio Voltaire has books

Some churches here have "gift shops" here. My mom is still very religious (I am not) and I have to go there to get her presents haha. Though, some churches have free rosary in the back. Most of the time those are the glow in the dark ones for kids or wooden ones. The fancier ones are expensive.

Thank you so much for the free magazine and the giveaway! 🖤 And this video, helpful and fun :)

[@anniekeller6351]

You guys!....This was SO inspiring! You guys had really great ideas but they just spurred my imagination in a quest for my own goth gifts. One thing I can tell ya about church merch in my neck of the woods is that I live not far from a Greek orthodox monastery up in Washington state & they have a merch store with really great small wooden alters w/virgin Mary & Jesus, small oil burning candles in long chain holders that you can carry & swing while walking around or hang from hooks in the ceiling they have recordings of monastic chanting which is calming, low key and (to a degree) kinda' creepy in a horror film way. Also I looked up on you-tube a tutorial on making Gothic water candles (@Mika Chan Sailor) & finally my last contribution to the goth holiday gift pot the band T-shirt from the Hollywood Vampires - the grandpa rock band with the mouth w/fangs t-shirt which rocks in a very horrifying gothy way. That's all I got.....Love you guys...Happy Holidays & Christmas. & remember...BEHAVE!...Santa's watchin......🎅🦇

[@MerryMoss]

3:28 the whole bit with the candle gift killed me 😂 Really nice video once again! definitely clicked on the link for the free magazine, so cool! Merry creepmas 💀🦇

[@elizabethshields1719]

Merry Christmas and I haven't seen rosary beads at the thrift stores and I didn't know churches had gift shops, is that a thing now? I live in the United States and that may be why I don't see church gift shops and no rosary beads in the thrift stores. These are pretty cool but I would end up buying every frigging candle if I could afford it (nevermind I have candles I haven't used yet, and nevermind I've reminded myself I don't need another candle lol). I have a plastic coffin with a skeleton on it that I keep my spare inkpens in beside a skull that the eyes light up. Beside that skull I have a 3-d printed skull I painted two years ago. To answer the question you haven't asked yet, I have those items on my desk in my living room, and yes when I have company those items are the first things they see besides my computer setup. If they haven't caught on I have a goth vibe they never will lol.

[@aalihte3378]

Church merch is totally a thing in the states. I think you could google catholic shop or something like that to see if theres one near you. Ooh or just christian bookstore. I see oodles of those.

[@elizabethshields1719]

@aalihte3378 I think there's still a few Christian bookstores open but not where I live-it would be in the bigger cities. Those books I'll have to look into (I love reading and read when I get the chance. I'm also picky about what I read much to the dismay of my family and friends lol. They usually say road trip and let me pick out the book(s) I want if they get me gifts.)

[@wildmarjoramdieselpunk6396]

In the 90s, you could find rosaries in thrift stores all the time! But I also bought them in church shops in Europe.

[@StewCat-o7w]

Another suggestion: Bandcamp gift cards, to help discover and support new goth music. Note that cards don't work in the app, only the website. Speaking of books, I've been reading all the Joy Division biographies. It's interesting how diverse the guys' personalities are (which is why some of them are no longer talking). I recommend Joy Division fans check out the first New Order album, Movement, if they haven't heard it. Also, I only just picked up Lol Tolhurst's book Goth: A History! He seems like a really good writer, so I am looking forward to reading his other book as well. EDIT: Damn, I keep adding more stuff here. Conor, have you heard of Damien Hearse? He has some good stuff. Check his songs Alone and Pro Life Death Camp, and also the album Crime. 🦇

@@Typischerhorror many printers have their own takes on the idea, image search for “Bauhaus Joy division shirt” and it’ll be one of the first results. What you can’t see in the video is that it says “Boys Don’t Cry” at the bottom. They’re the goth equivalent of the “Use the Force, Harry” memes. 😁

We have a store locally called "Dightman's" which isn't directly connected to a church, as far as I know, but they sell bibles, religious music and other stuff. It's a "christian" store, so I'm not sure if they have "catholic" stuff, but I might check there, next time I'm in there looking at CDs.

[@ThreadBomb]

I think only Catholic and Orthodox shops will have crucifixes etc.

[@anniekeller6351]

P.S. I forgot something in the previous comment....BOOKS! one really great one is Morbid Curiosities by Paul Gambino. Plus one more thing to look for on line is Paxton Gate - they're in Portland Oregon and in San Francisco, California. If anyone out there used to shop at The Bone Room in Berkley California (which closed) this is a great alternative and exactly the same kind of stuff...So if you want to get your special goth a bat or tarantula shadow box...this is the place. Ciao & ave satanas

[@Xylaax]

Been single for awhile now but some of my exes were goth, and they basically liked fishnet arms like what Connor is wearing, IDK the name, skull candle that when lit the wax turned blood red, chokers, tiny bat/coffin/tombstone decorations, chocolate etc

[@wildmarjoramdieselpunk6396]

I saw one where the Joy Division waves made the Bauhaus symbol. But I don’t think this is that.

[@elizabethshields1719]

I'll admit I'm a weird goth vibe person-I like colors (but like I am with reading I be picky lol) even though black has been my go to since I was a kid. I go for the tie dye colors and of course it has to have cobalt blue in the mix. (I noticed when I went through my clothes to get rid of stuff there's blue in the design or the background is blue. Interesting.) As for candles...yes I will grab a candle, open it up (if it's a scented candle especially. Many times I have gotten strange looks from my man alone for doing this, and my man will push any item that has "try me" or something similar stamped on it and dares to call me weird lol. ( I don't want a candle scent that would knock out an elephant.) I also like having my books and I promise I have my book grabbing compulsion in control lol.

[@kevinarft4625]

Conor, didn't Joy Division have a shirt/poster just like that one? Thanks for mentioning The Art of Darkness but I'll never read all of that massive book. Keep the excellent content coming.
