Chillingly wrought in exquisite and realistic detail, this stunning tarot is ideal for exploring your own dark side. Dare to venture forth into a world where time is meaningless, light is death, love is cold, and power rules. Evoking a strange mixture of horror and sympathy, these tragic, ageless beings tell a fascinating story. With eternity before them, these creatures must find a way to survive a nightmare of contradictions. What they have to offer is a rare form of wisdom that perhaps only the damned can impart.

The Vampires Tarot of the Eternal Night Kit also includes a 160-page companion guide by tarot expert and popular author Barbara Moore. Illuminating the gloom, this book explores the ideas of darkness and extreme opposites co-existing.

Each card is examined from a dark, a human, and a light approach. The dark approach is the shadow side of the card and the light approach is a more spiritual aspect. In addition, there is a little section called “The Vampire’s Story” for each card, providing a little story prompt to inspire the imagination. For the court cards, the story is a brief bit of monologue as if spoken by the character in the card.

Of course there are ample directions for performing a reading using a variety of spreads. But there is also a bit of fun. Vampires are nothing if not dramatic and theatrical, so there is a short section of ideas for hosting a vampire-themed party. Everything in that section is meant for entertainment but one never knows what kind of truth will emerge in the midst of a joke.

The book also shares ideas for journaling with this deck. Finally, because of the very nature of vampires, this deck is rare in that it is ideal for shadow work and intense personal exploration. It truly transcends run-of-the-mill Tarot decks and will lead you to insights in your readings that you've never discovered before.
