Twice a year a small fishing town on the North Yorkshire coast, population around thirteen thousand, fills up with thousands of people dressed in black velvet, corsetry, top hats, Victorian mourning wear and the occasional set of leathery wings, and the town has gone from tolerating it to depending on it. Whitby Goth Weekend runs every April and every late October, timed to Halloween, and it is Britain’s great subculture pilgrimage — the place a music scene decided to call home.
