Let me share some presents from my very own Christmas ‘wish list’ (spoiler alert – some I’ve bought already!)

all the gifts below are under £20, yet still capture a touch of the macabre that helps keeps my world alive.

Whether it’s a book that delves into darker side history that they wouldn’t let you read at school, or a gift with a touch of eerie charm, hopefully my Christmas roundup is perfect for anyone who embraces the strange and macabre.

No bright, cheerful distractions here – just treasures for lovers of the beautifully twisted – all under £20.

Some items I’ve had on my ‘wish list’ for a number of year, and this year, I was in a place where I could buy them as the year went on. Other items, though, like the Dark Archives book, are firmly on my list for Christmas!
