With its haunting gothic design and reimagined archetypes, this deck is a portal into your subconscious, designed for both traditional tarot practice and deep shadow work.

⚠️ Attention: The deck box itself adds to the experience—it squeaks open with a creaky door sound, setting the perfect spooky mood for your readings.

  Your accomplishments sparkle in the eyes of others, but remember—ego must stay balanced.
