What are these dark carnivals you speak of?  

[EvFaerAshlynn]

I, too, wonder of what sort of "Dark Carnivals" you speak. Care to elaborate?  

[XAngelFromYourNightmareX]

Never heard of it.

 

[rag_doll_dami]

dark carnivals as in,
fortune telling, taro cards, hypnosis, masks, posions, many gods/goddesses worship, having fun, trapeze, you know the whole dark carnival feel, candy, spiders, spirals........rituals  

[GilAskan]

Though it can be well executed, I feel that the theme is over-used. Music-videos in particular use it far too frequently, and the general aesthetic is growing in popularity; hell, HBO had a TV series about such a theme. (My unconcious association with the term "dark carnival" to Insane Clown Posse skews me to a bias, though.)

As for actual carnivals?

Not my thing, really. I like festivals more.

I've only heard about Dark Carnivals in relation to juggalos/jugglettes... outside of that, I've never been to one.

I love Dark Carnivals. Nox Arcana had a whole CD with that theme. I wish I could juggle or tell fortunes, then I'd hold my own carnival.

You should listen to Stolen Babies if you like spirals.

[Redwing~Shadow]

I know of them, but really could care less to go to one...I own my own tarot card set and well, I don't see the use of them either...I could less interested in psychics really...  

[Demonic_angels]

Also, you can create those Tim Burton-esque spirals with the flat edges using something called SPIDRONS.

I love the idea of them, but the only time i've heard of them was from ICP and crature feature. But god, it would be great to see one come here
