Dark Eerie Winter Junk Journals

Handmade black gothic winter junk journal with winter ephemera and papers

This winter I could not resist making more dark creepy Gothic themed winter junk journals for my like minded, eerie loving enthusiasts of all things weird and dark :) These journals offer an unsettling atmosphere that will immediately seep deep into your bones. Each page offers an obscure tale, filled with cryptic symbols, faded spirits and ghoulish visitors.
I like to imagine what writings and notions might be shared inside these sacred pages.
Perhaps it goes something like this???….

She writes…As the night casts its eerie glow upon the world, I sit here in the quiet solitude of my journal, documenting the unnerving events that unfold under the watchful eye of the full moon. The moon tonight seems different, its luminescence unusually intense. Shadows dance and twist, elongating into grotesque shapes that give me an unsettling sensation. Eerie, wispy tendrils of mist drift across the moonlit landscape, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. Silence looms.”

The writer continues… “I find nothing but the moon's unrelenting glare, illuminating the desolation before me. Yet, the sensation persists, as if someone or something is watching, lurking just beyond my field of vision. A mournful howl echoes through the night, sending shivers down my spine. It is a sound that carries both longing and menace, a chilling reminder that winter darkness reigns. The howl seems to come from a far-off place, yet its resonance reverberates deep within my soul, awakening primal fears I never knew I possessed.”

The writer continues…”The trees, once stalwart guardians of the night, now sway with an unsettling rhythm. Their branches thrash and bend, creating an ominous chorus against the black backdrop of the sky. Their eerie, skeletal forms seem almost alive under the full moon's intensity, as if they are reaching out for something, or someone who is no longer living.”

Perhaps the last mysterious entry might go a little like this…” With each passing moment, the shadows grow more restless. They twist and flutter, as if attempting to break free from their tethered existence. Vague figures dart and weave, merging with the night's obscurity, playing tricks on my mind. It becomes increasingly difficult to differentiate between what is real and what is an illusion under the moon's unyielding presence.”
