Abstract
This paper was published in a book of conference proceedings from the 22nd International Oral History Association Conference. It explored the significance of attending and participating in Whitby Gothic festival. It draws upon Vicor Turner's analysis of status reversal to argue that the festival is a form of renewal and that the event symbolises a set of idealised goth values.
