Does anyone have the "Vampire Tarot" deck? If you do, please tell me about it because I'm thinking about buying it. Thanx~

I recently got the deck and am real pleased with it. The theme is carried nicely throughout the deck. I have only looked through the cards, and I do not know how well it work for readings particularly because the theme is "dark". It might be better for self readings as not everyone is into vampires ;). All I can say is that I like the deck and am glad that I added it to my collection.

I am glad I bought the deck because it is so different, but I don't think i'd use it for readings. I liked the Major Arcana a lot but found that the Minors left quite a lot to be desired (understatement). I did like the Aces, though, and of all the Minors I liked the Cups best. Maybe it's because they're all filled with blood.... all in all, it's not a bad deck if you collect different styles.

I bought this deck also . I really like it, it's artwork for a theme deck . I haven't used it for a reading either. Perhaps some day when I'm feeling really Goth?! It's dark , in a vampire way, but also kind-of cute. Some of the colors are striking. Deep pink,purple, magenta come to mind. The cards are a bit big and feel nice and heavy.

I've thought about buying this deck as well. I own the Fantastical Tarot by this same artist. I am curious to know others opinions on both decks (if you have them :) ) I've found that the Fantastical is beautiful and I love the majors but, like Lauren, for me the minors are a problem. Especially the Wands suit. They just all look alike to me and I find myself thinking of my Robin Wood deck so that I can interpret them. I want the Vampire deck too, but not if I'll never use them, I can find other things to spend the $$ on.... Rhiannon :)
