It’s that time of year again where the nights are closing in, the sleigh bells are ringing, and everyone is decking the halls with boughs of holly. Oh, and its also a time for ghoulish ghost stories, terrifying yuletide traditions, and of course Santa’s horrifying festive double: Krampus. So what better way to celebrate this festive and spooky time of year than with a Gothic advent calendar.

Join us throughout advent as each day you will be able to open a festive, Gothic treat exploring the spooky side of the season and chosen by everyone at the Centre for the History of the Gothic and Sheffield Gothic.

So have yourself a very spooky Christmas, and a wonderfully Gothic December.
