This is becoming more of a Dracula/Bram Stoker fans' gathering than a real GOTH weekend!

Skip to 6:00 for actual information on goth instead of cosplayers misrepresenting the subculture

These are not goths. I would love to see what music they listen to, and how they dress day to day. I can imagine they are extremely basic.

I've gone twice already its brilliant You meet so many amazing people and it's a time where the community really comes toghether

It's marvellous that Whitby can welcome this alternative Gothic Lifestyle Seeing the costumes and different ages who wear fantastic clothing is a tonic

Aww awesome. Really wish I could go.

NO Goths whatsoever in this video...however lots of people wearing costumes enjoying themselves.

Whitby isn't a Goth event anymore. Anyone seeing this will Goths just dress up and walk about town. It was a music festival, you had several nights of clubs and live bands as well as a market. Most Goths avoided going out near the Abbey on the weekend due to how busy it gets with the day trippers and costumers.

Yeeees I've been there and I can't wait to go again this October I can be myself hereeee

I was in Whitby earlier this year, by pure accident the same weekend as the Goth event. I had never even heard about it before, but took the opportunity to film it. Everybody looked to be having fun and I think the locals enjoyed it too .. the fish 'n chips shops certaibnly did, judging by the queues. The next event is at the end of this month (oct 2023)

Goth rules!

I suspect many of these people are not really goths, nor support the wider gothic scene/community to any extent. I've been a goth for over 35 years and noticed many of the fancy dress crowd tend not to support goth bands/clubs too. Of course, it up to them to dress how like and turn up at Whitby twice a year and call themselves goths. Equally, however, it would be interesting to see how many of these people have actually supported the goth scene/community 24/7 and what gothic music they listen to.

*I've been 3 times! I hope I get to go after quarantine.*

I've been s girh since the late 80's. We never wanted to fit in. I guess you would slam me as a traditional goth....I can take that. This reminds me a bit of like a a Brazilian Carneval for goths and it looks more like gatherung of costumes than everyday clothes. In Germany, you get tons of these types at the WGT.....pity actually. I do love how positive this report is. So points there.💖

i hate that people still call the way we dress as costumes

It's a spectical to the normies, it's a way of life for us, I'm a second generation goth 🖤🖤🖤🕯️

Goths still weren't the norm. A lot of 80s goths will tell you. There was a lot of bullshit thrown at them. People are a little more open minded now so it's not as bad. And every now and again dressing the part gets popular in the mainstream until it isn't anymore.

Fun fact.Arthur Brown one of the first goths comes from Whitby.

Would of been nice if Ch4 had actually made an effort to talk to the event organizers, Mainly Jo Hampshire

For the first 6 minutes of this video it is the most depressing reinforcement of tired clichés and stereotypes I have seen, and *most* of those people are in no way representative of the goth scene.

As a German am I allowed to take offence at this?

I was "Punk" before "Goth" The only comment I have is, the people that wear "Tribal" headdresses, should NOT. Only because it is known in real Indian Tribes, that you have to "earn the right" to wear those and it is considered "disrespectful" otherwise "Stay Dreamy" :)

Goths aren't that weird . Most of them are the nerdy kids who didn't fit in at school.
