full description
The Grim Tales Tarot is a darkly imaginative tarot deck inspired by the haunting symbolism of Brothers Grimm fairytales, created and illustrated by Fiona Edgewood. Blending surreal gothic imagery with the familiar structure of the Rider Waite Smith system, this deck invites you into a shadowed world where folklore, intuition, and hidden truths intertwine.
Within these cards, well known fairytale motifs take on a deeper, more unsettling edge. Characters step out from forest paths and cottage doorways, whispering messages about your modern day “once upon a time”. Beneath the dreamlike artwork lie subtle occult undertones, encouraging you to explore what is hidden, unspoken, or waiting to be acknowledged.
The deck follows the Rider Waite Smith framework, making it accessible for readers already familiar with traditional tarot while offering a distinctive gothic lens for interpretation. Readings with the Grim Tales Tarot feel like the unfolding of a personal dark fairytale, rich with symbolism, reflection, and intuitive guidance.
The accompanying 188 page full colour guidebook provides detailed meanings for each card, supporting both intuitive reading and deeper exploration. Together, the cards and book encourage you to trust your instincts, listen closely to symbolic messages, and navigate life’s challenges with insight drawn from the shadowed edges of myth and story.
Printed using sustainably sourced paper and ink, this deck is thoughtfully produced as well as visually striking. The Grim Tales Tarot is ideal for readers drawn to gothic aesthetics, dark fairytales, and tarot work that explores both light and shadow with depth and creativity.
