I've already looked at
Godchild
Vampire knight
Bloody Kiss
and other mainstream gothic lolita-type magas and i'm trying to find a "hidden gem" somewhere. I like Horror and mystery themes the most.

any suggestions aappreciated.

What about the other manga of yuki kaori?
And KUSUMOTO Maki.
Also manga by MIHARA Mitsukazu like DOLL: IC in a Doll, Tamashii no Futago.

From some reason dolls by naked ape comes to mind~

Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

If I had a fantasy self, it'd be a tentacle monster.

this thread seems close enough to what you are looking for.

what about rozen maiden it's more about dolls than gothic lolita but i think it's really nice and you could like it

Quote from Coluche

If one day you feel useless and depressed, remember: one day you were the fastest spermatozoon of all.

The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, which is why sometimes people look bright until they start talking.

Death Note
Rozen Maiden

Great, I wasted more than half an hour on this... 🤢 I had included other characters, but the manga itself wasn't as gothic.

Vampire Kisses: Blood Relatives
Gothic Sports
...maybe even Princess Ai and The Tarot Cafe (though it's been quite awhile since I read either).

If it weren't for the gutter, my mind would be homeless.

not sure if this works but
Dance in the Vampire Bund

I TOTALLY second the works by Mitsukazu Mihara-sama and Kaori Yuki-sama!
Worships

Other mangas? It seems you liek gothic themed related to vampires?
then try..
Night Exile
and Crimson Cross..Vampire girl

and maybe.. Shigeshoushi and Fetish

DOLL: IC in a Doll, Beautiful People and the works by Mihara-sama are the 'hidden gems' that you're looking for.. some of her works are licensed by Tokyopop but HAH, if you're a fan of gothic-loli manga, then her works are a **MUST-HAVE. ** 😐

I'm not into Vampires especially since I wan't to stab Edward Cullen and his weirdo girlfriend/follower Bella to death. I hate the movie, the books and the theme of extreme "romeo and juliet"ish love , the story is not creative and doesn't interest me( and the cult of fangirls that follow this sh*t doesn't make me liek it either). The whole "damsel in distress" theme makes me wanna puke too, so I'm not that into Vampire Knight and such, the heroine is too girly, which is why, on a random note, i like shonen-ai, because the romance usually features strong characters and can go either way, if you know what i mean.I'm a sadist sometimes. I usually go for shonen titles if I want to read a horror title that won't make me fall asleep by page 3. Romance and horror don't mix, there are rare expetions. I like somethinmg with a storybook feel to it. If it has a carnival, zombies, a James Dean type character and murder-mystery , i will read it until i faint from exhaustion. I'm weird. i know.

uh...Thank You?

I'm not into Twilight either..it's so darn f*cking overrated..but anyhu, ppl often associate "Gothic theme' with Vampire or victorian themed manga, which is WHY I mentioned some of the mangas that I've previously mentioned...

If you're looking for carnival-zombie mangas then I think you've alredi read:
Ningyou Kyuutei Gakudan
(which obviously fit the criteria)

Others?
Franken Furan
Dragon head
Doubt
Shounen dolls
Deadman wonderland
Dazzle
Karneval
Embalming
Vampire girl <-- has carnival + vampire theme. Very dark tone.

Murder msytery?
Suicide Island

Island <-- most definitely fit your criteria..

😢

Thank you for the suggestion but Rozen maiden isn't quite my taste, i'm into more macabre "sends a shiver down your spine" stuff.
