Gothic Temptations

Where the darker side of Squidoo meets up.

 

I would love for Gothic Temptations to be the meeting place for the darker lenses that Squidoo has to offer. I'd like to see your Vampire lenses, Horror movie lenses, Gothic music lenses, any lenses that are Gothic or Medieval in nature, Horror author lenses, your favorite frightening books, fantasy artists, and all of your darkly strange and haunted lenses.

 

If you have a lens that deals with anything that falls within a shadow of being Gothic, Vampiric, a bit frightening, or maybe just a bit blackened around the edges we'd love to see it!

Before you SUBMIT 

Submission Guidelines

Although some of us may like to play rough, before submitting your dark offerings, please keep in mind that Squidoo is a family oriented site and this group is for dark, not dirty, lenses so please don't submit any adult lenses. Anything I find distasteful will be quietly swept away.

If you aren't sure if your lens fits this group, please send it along anyway and let me be the judge.


Congratulations to all of you! The Gothic Temptations group has recently been awarded the Excellent Groups Award. This wouldn't have been possible without your consistent hard work and I'd like to take this moment to thank each and every one of you!

~Gothic Temptations Blog~ 

As of January 12th there is a new address!

In the meantime, stop by and share your thoughts. Help me determine the direction this new Gothic Temptations venture should take.

Just want you all to know I have a new Lense about William Hope Hodgson.

Its called Carnacki! and its about a famous writer who influenced Lovecraft!

Als a Question does or should Charles Stross count as a Goth flavoured writer for certain of his books?

I'm thinking the Atrocity Archives and Jennifer Morgue?

Aa well as Gothical Words I have a list of all my Lenses on my primary lense Scholara. Enjoy!
