50 Funny Memes With A Twist Of Horror, As Shared On This Instagram Page
Interview With ExpertWe can use the word 'gothic' to refer to literature, music, fashion, and even an entire lifestyle. It's hard to describe this nuanced subculture with just a few words, but to put it simply, a goth is someone who finds beauty in things others consider dark.
But to provide you with a better explanation, we decided to take a look at the Instagram account 'Gothik Soul' and the memes it shares. From friendships to dating, work, and beyond — they perfectly portray how the world looks when you view it through this group's lens.

That's why I love Terry Pratchett's Death. They're so funny too
Somewhere along the line, they picked up the blame for doing the actual killing; like if the grim reaper is avoided, you don't even die. No, the grim reaper takes you to Heaven. You definitely want to go with him. The notion of the grim reaper comes from a parable told by Jesus, explaining that evil people are allowed to flourish so that the good aren't killed with the evil. He likens it to a field where weeds have been sown among a grain crop. But at the end of times, the reaper will gather the grain to the barn, while the weeds are burned.
Dude its the scythe and the outfit, lose and change it and everything will change... :D
Sadly, he tried that. Bill Door still remembered everything about being death but also came to understand that humans live life to the fullest because we hear the sand in the timer flowing
Load More Replies...Aww. He just wants to play games like Battleships, Clue, or Twister. He's a fun guy at heart and plays a mean Bass.
he's been known to play Cripple Mr Onion.
Load More Replies..."Goth style is complex," Tim Sinister, the man behind The Blogging Goth, a website that covers the culture, told Bored Panda. "It's instantly recognizable when you see it, yet hard to fully define in mere words."
"Since coalescing over four decades ago, it's constantly reinvented itself while also maintaining a spectacular somberness that continues to entice new adherents. It encompasses so many people, from original fans of The Cure since '79, to teenagers emerging right now with a love for bands like Vision Video or Lebanon Hanover."
We had similar(translated) : "Mommy, i dont like my younger brother...." "Quit talking and eat!" ;)
Load More Replies...Well that was definitely dark and twisted but quite humorous.
Just like how every Family Guy character is technically a Disney character.
And he in turn was always devoted to her. This is true relationship goals; finding someone whose weirdness complements yours, so that you can fall in mutual weird and call it 'love'.
Load More Replies...The most loving couple ever! Their deep affection for one another is part of what makes them "creepy", which says all sorts of things about the culture around them.
I'm sure they had an amazing sex life, especially down in the dungeon!
Move over Romeo and Juilet. Theirs is the greatest love story of all time!
Mais oui! Gomez- "Cara Mia!" *grabs Morticia's hand and starts kissing it, up to her elbow*
Because of some surface-level media portrayals and people's tendency to oversimplify things we don't understand, there are also several misconceptions about the community. "People may be surprised that goths have an excellent sense of humor; as 'Gothik Soul' proves, we live, we laugh, we loathe!" Tim Sinister said.
"My audience on The Blogging Goth particularly enjoys the most current, cutting-edge memes. Beyond that, people should let go of the idea that goths are violence-loving, devil-worshipping misanthropes who consume joy and excrete sadness. Sure, some of us may lean into that image, but in reality, goth is a subculture that attracts people from all walks of life," he added.
Bear's are beefy and rotund.. Wolves are muscular and have lean builds. Pandas are Asian bears.
Load More Replies...I guess I'm a 'girl'. I've always been more of an Anne McCaffrey / The White Dragon kind of person than a 'gotta slay them all' kind of person.
I remember the advert for Listerene in the 80s with Clifford the Dragon! Oh Clifford!
"You don't scare me! I've been married twice and raised 6 kids! Amateur!
Kevin Bacon, Edith Pilaf, Vladimir Poutine--
Load More Replies...As a longtime member of the scene, Tim Sinister wants people to forget the stereotypes of goths being skinny white vampire clones and start embracing all the different ways they can engage with the music and other aspects of the culture, regardless of who they are.
"Hand in hand with that, people need to stop sexualizing goth women—it's an endemic online problem that reduces complex individuals to unreal fantasies and is unfair," he said.
"Yeah, we have a demon in the family, the guy in the tie-oh you were talking about Aunt Pam? Yeah she's fine."
No I am sorry, I will not be able to sta for dinner. As a matter of fact I was just informed that I have a very important meeting that I forgot about. All the way across the continent. But it was a pleasure meeting you. Bye
Typical. Everyone's delighted to discover male judges and politicians on the family tree, but a strong, powerful female ancestor is regarded as somehow shameful.
This would totally be me, correcting his grammar like the grammar nazi I am!
I am reaching an age where becoming a vampire doesn't sound so bad. But I want to be one of the sexy, strong, self healing ones who can be out in sunlight.
Wouldn't be bad if it weren't for the glitter.
Load More Replies...Hey, I'm quite full on the inside! Granted, a little too full, could stand to lose quite a bit of weight but I'm not empty.
Tim Sinister explained that since goth is such an influential subculture, it offers something for everyone, whether they're drawn to its classic roots or the fresh, creative energy it continues to inspire. "I'd encourage everyone to observe how goth encourages innovation and creativity, whilst also trying to stay true to its origins! We have classic bands from the '80s playing huge festivals across the world, inspiring brand new bands to form and support them—I love that cycle more than anything else!" he shared.
This is a chick - like "baby chicken" chick. Baby crows, like all corvids, arenot covered in feathers like a chicken chick is.
Baby birds- with the exception of poultry birds- are ugly as homemade sin at birth? hatch? Bald, knobby, giant bulging eyes. Parakeets are horrifying when newly hatched.

Would it be a bother to take the insurance companies with as well?
Load More Replies...Yes actually, all those people who wrongfully died by the hands of monsters who never got convicted.
The pentagram is the wrong side up for this image's purpose... just saying...
"Beyond that, goth at its best supports glamorous creativity and acceptance of differences, both of which are traits we could all benefit from embodying," Tim Sinister said.
"We have a rare freedom, I always say. Goths can listen to any music they want at all beyond the goth genre, but others seem scared of what might happen if they listen to goth music—the only real risk is that they love it, and fall into our spooky scene!"
Hopefully, these memes will help bridge the gap!
The fan fiction theory that Jared fell in love with a "Sarah" years ago but they couldn't be together, she died, so Jareth keeps taking little baby brothers of girls named "Sarah", trying to find his lost love again, but all the girls fail to solve the labyrinth or become lost as one of the 'hoarder' women in the garbage dump, all the little brothers become goblins and that's his goblin army. Freakin' heartbreaking.
I heard a podcast where they explained that the film is basically about the sexual awakening of a teenager and Jareth is the embodiment of her desires, and the labyrinth represents the struggles of teenagehood. It killed all the magic l remember from watching it at the cinema as a 13yo, but low-key made a lot of sense 😂😂 I got out of that cinema with a serious crash on David Bowie in drag.
Load More Replies...My mum had a huge crush on David Bowie as The Goblin King when she was younger
Hell. I'd go just for the sake of saying that I was invited somewhere.

This is me right now. Sorry everybody but I’m gonna vent so please just move past This if you don’t want to read it. I spent over a year in hospital when I became a triple amputee. I spent in two Comas over a month and when I woke up they didn’t bother to check the brain damage I had-I don’t say brain injuries, because an injury itself is implied that it can repair, be fixed or heal.. that’s just my opinion though-. Anyway – after I woke up the doctors didn’t bother to focus on my brain. All they told my parents was that I had no short-term memory. They also told my parents that I wasn’t able to read and write any more. Nothing else. they didn’t bother looking into it, they didn’t bother checking into it. They also told my parents that I was having problems with my speech, and my parents realise that I was talking very, very very fast – a lot faster than I used to and I still do now it’s ridiculous. And a few other things that are really annoying.… Anyway, it has taken me…
TEN YEARS to get a doctor to listen to me that my brain is not how it used to be. Most doctors Just now ASSUME that I have ADHD I want to refer me to us psychiatrist… Instead of asking me questions about it… And I finally got out of all of the doctors, a pain management doctor to listen to me that my brain is not how it used to be. At my first appointment chatting to her she assumed that I was “neuro divergent“ until I pointed out to her, and so did my mum, that I was not. I am not. And that I was never like this before I got sick. She listened to me intently and she was genuine when she said she believes me. I tell you now I CRIED Happy tears. Finally, someone is listening to me! Unfortunately it has taken me three months to get my GP to send my referral through because she filled it out and then the afternoon she finished. It went away on holiday and didn’t send it through… And then she keeps forgetting and getting sidetracked and just busy as doctors are - she’s a great dr.

Must be a My Chemical Romance gig. The opening number will be Welcome to the Black Parade. Alternatives - Alannah Myles, in which case wear some black velvet as well. About the eye shadow - paint it black. If you normally wear bright colours then it's back to black. You should consider changing you name to Betty. Lastly, I hope you aren't the black sheep of the family. I could go on but I won't.
Me 60 seconds after arriving home, tosses dressy (not that dressy) work clothes on floor and immediately puts on jeans and a 20 year old concert T - ah, finally back in my natural state
