The Vampire Tarot by 2024 Nathalie Hertz-Out of Print

I was immediately drawn to this deck because of the Anime/Manga artwork. The style is a balance of elegance and irreverence. It is creepy, but comic. Its dark sense is not overwhelming, it is just right. In addition, the little booklet that accompanies the deck is well done. The introduction, explanations, and interpretations are insightful and accurate. One could easily pick up this deck and begin reading without help from other sources. I imagine it will appeal strongly to Goths and vampire lovers, but people like myself who enjoy artistic and stylish, creepy and spooky things, will love this deck too.

The deck has been hole punched and tied together with a cord. The cards are in excellent condition other than the hole. Once you get the deck, cut the cord and put the cards in its own tarot bag or simply wrap them in a silk scarf. The reason they are hole punched and tied is because I used them in my shop as a Demo Deck.


The individual suits are very well designed. Swords are sharp and gothic. Wands are carved wood with pointed tips. Cups are golden goblets adorned with scrollwork. Pentacles are silver disks. Each suit also has its own "theme." Swords feature gargoyles and figures of stone, except for the court cards (all of which are vampires). Wands feature framed pictures, as if the reader is walking along a gallery or long hall hung with portraits. Cups showcase windows and landscapes beyond. Pentacles focus mostly on people and vampires. Every pip card depicts a scene in some way. Of them all, the Swords seem to reflect most clearly their card meanings. Aces depict black coffins, draped in a red scarf, crossed or covered by their suit image. Pages are male vampires holding their instrument, often with ruffled or elaborate clothing. Knights appear with horses, more actively wielding their suit's instrument. Queens and Kings pose regally, fiercely, seductively, or humorously.
