Hey there, deck author here and I just wanted to thank you for your very kind words about the Tarot of the Vampires. It definitely uplifted me today 🙂 Re. the issue of how often the characters look expressly like a vampire. This was absolutely a challenge. The deck is based on modern vampire fiction like True Blood, Buffy, Anita Blake, etc and an issue is that the modern vampire sort of blends in until they flash their fangs. Craig did a heroic job of getting some toothy smiles in there but I. Hear. You. If you just saw Temperance you wouldn't know she's a vamp right away. Mea culpa! Because of the fang problem a number of the cards got more monstrous as the deck was being illustrated (Devil, 9 of Swords, 9 of Cups).

Oh Hi!!!! This is so cool that you're commenting here :D I've been having a lot of fun playing with this deck (also, was recently interviewed on the 'Two fools walk into the Tower' and they pulled cards from your deck!) Yes I can see that being tricky to do for sure! At least the guidebook helps fill in some of those gaps.

Love this video. Bought the deck on Amazon before it was complete LOL. But Hana...Hana... you skated right past Temperance. Why? 🤣 Also I really dig the music for the flip through of the Minor cards.

To be very honest, since I filmed the flip through, and me talking about them in separate bits... I think the page for the temperance got stuck to the one in front of it and I didn't see it at the time.

This deck definitely gives me pop culture vampire vibes, Twilight (my favourite Vampire fiction book series) and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It definitely gives that gothic romance vibe. I kinda wish there was more Edward and Bella vibes in this deck though, but I think that's just because I love Twilight so much. The image in the death card, reminds me of Bella’s dream of Edward changing her into a vampire in the Twilight movie, more romantic less tragic. I do like that we get the story of the girl in the fool card being lured by the handsome vampire, being changed in the death card and coming into her own as the world card. That definitely reminds me of Bella, from being the damsel in distress and needing protection from Edward and the Cullen’s, to then coming into her own, once she was turned by Edward, and in the end becoming the strongest vampire of them all using her shield to protect her family and friends. I am intreagued by this deck, the artwork is nice, I agree it's a very cool deck. I also agree that it does go more general gothic elements rather then specifically vampires.

Yes I agree too! The connection with the Twilight story that you have would make this a brilliant deck for you to read with I think.

@@SuburbanWitchery I am waiting to see what Sasha Graham’s vampire deck that she’s currently working on is going to be like, before I consider buying this Deck. I know that I connect with Sasha Graham’s writing style, The Tarot of the Witches Garden is my favourite deck at the moment, and I’m currently reading her Tarot Book, The Magic of Tarot and I love it

@@JennaZouros Oh cool! That's awesome. She also did the Dark side of Tarot which is on my list of decks to film unboxings for this week!
