A place which is like the modern-day real world, only a lot more goth. Various supernatural creatures lurk just below the surface, often treating humans as cattle at best, and vermin at worst. The term was coined in the first edition rulebook for White Wolf's Tabletop Game Vampire: The Masquerade, and has since been applied not only to The World of Darkness series as a whole, but also to many other works that are similar in tone. If this takes place 20 Minutes into the Future, and with more robots, it's Cyberpunk. See also Urban Fantasy. |

Played with in Vampire: The Masquerade: Winter's Teeth where the book invokes the attitudes of the tabletop game but also acknowledges it's been twenty years since the game's heyday. Its protagonist, Cecily Bain, is a former Riot Grrrl who bemoans most of her former colleagues are either old or soccer moms even on the youngest side. Even so, it's still a bright pair of modern cities (Minneapolis and Saint Paul) full of vampires preying on an unsuspecting populace. | |

Umineko: When They Cry can be considered this. It's set in the 1980s, but there's definitely a lot more emphasis on the "gothic" than the "punk", taking many plot elements from 18th and 19th-century Gothic novels. | |

As noted above, the original setting, now retroactively called the Old World of Darkness, both named and codified the genre. Beneath the Masquerade, countless supernatural creatures rule from the shadows and scheme against each other. There are humans who know about this and fight back, but it's presented as a hard life with a short life expectancy. | |

The United States of Monsters novels by C.T. Phipps are a Gothic Punk Shared Universe where the protagonists are all supernaturals living in a Broken Masquerade world. They tend to be snarky, sarcastic Rebellious Spirit characters fighting against both corrupt governments and evil demons. The center of this world is New Detroit, which has been rebuilt as a vampire utopia. Straight Outta Fangton is the best example of this as its protagonist is a poor black vampire, Peter Stone, working at a gas station who fights demons in his off-hours. The Morgan Detective Agency books are about a bisexual Dhampyr private detective who hunts the supernatural while struggling with her condition as well as Fantastic Racism. |

The World of Darkness by White Wolf. As noted above, the original setting, now retroactively called the Old World of Darkness, both named and codified the genre. Beneath the Masquerade, countless supernatural creatures rule from the shadows and scheme against each other. There are humans who know about this and fight back, but it's presented as a hard life with a short life expectancy. The New World of Darkness, by contrast, has taken a deliberate step back from this, or perhaps evolved to Post-Gothic-Punk. The constant angsting has been seriously dialed back, though it still exists in places, and replaced with more of A World Half Full vibe. Furthermore, the anti-authoritarian message spread loud and clear across the very fabric of existence in the oWoD is gone, since the writing staff consider the over-politicization of the former line to have been detrimental to the final product. |

The Crow is certainly the Trope Codifier in this genre, if not the Ur-Example itself. It differs from most Gothic-Punk settings in that the main evil in this setting is human, and the primary supernatural element of the story (the title bird and the revenant avenger) is on the side of the angels. | |

Magic: The Gathering: The plane of Innistrad mostly seems like a typical Gothic Horror setting, except that the zombies that constantly menace the populace are the product of mad biologists' experiments with the nature of life and death.

The Crow is perhaps the first quintessential gothic punk film. Its visuals are dark, shadowy, and nearly monochromatic, often emphasizing churches, graveyards, and religious iconography. The macabre story heavily dwells on death, morning, and ghosts. On the punk end, the story takes place in an urban hellhole beset by street thugs and junkies. | |

Batman Film Series Batman (1989) and Batman Returns play this trope to the hilt, following Tim Burton's Signature Style. Gotham is gloomy, dark and severe, with a spartan color palate and towering, gothic stone buildings covered in gargoyles. The culture and style is a mishmash of then-modern fashions and retro designs more akin to those of the 1940s. The overall impression is an otherworldly and forbidding place. Batman Forever and Batman & Robin: Joel Schumacher retains a portion of the first two films' gothic ambiance while gradually introducing a more colorful and cartoony aesthetic. |

The Blade Trilogy, with its Dhampyr protagonist and its secret societies of vampires, is the quintessential action movie form of this aesthetic. | |

Lucifer is a lot more punk, exploring what it means to be in rebellion against an omnipotent omniscient being and whether that's futile. | |

While Blood (1997) was straight-up Gothic horror, Blood II: The Chosen takes place in a future featuring a corporate-looking cult that runs around in hoverjets. | |

Sekien no Inganock, a H-Game heavily influenced by this in conjunction with Steampunk (a rare example that is combined with that trope). Basically, every characters in the game is seeped with gothic drawings, clothes and personality. The protagonist constantly have to slay monsters with his trusty companion spirit. The tone... angsty enough that it makes the daily life looks sad. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the show from which Angel was spun off, is a Lighter and Softer version thereof, taking many of the tropes of the genre and dropping them into a Teen Drama, especially with the reveal of the Institute in season four. The Alternate Reality Episode "The Wish", showing a world where Buffy never came to Sunnydale and so the Master was able to carry out his plot, dives fully into this, with the vampires openly controlling Sunnydale, turning the Bronze into their headquarters, plotting to industrialize the harvesting of human blood, and leaving the town's human population cowering in fear and mounting an ineffectual resistance. | |

Dark was an attempt to re-bottle the success of Bloodlines and failed. Eric Bane is a newly turned vampire trying to find a vampire strong enough to eat in order to solidify his transformation. | |

The levels from Time Traveler set in 1998 live and breathe this trope featuring both gritty crime-ridden urban slums full of punk street criminals and haunted graveyards full of supernatural creatures such as ghosts, zombies, and vampires. | |

The New World of Darkness, by contrast, has taken a deliberate step back from this, or perhaps evolved to Post-Gothic-Punk. The constant angsting has been seriously dialed back, though it still exists in places, and replaced with more of A World Half Full vibe. Furthermore, the anti-authoritarian message spread loud and clear across the very fabric of existence in the oWoD is gone, since the writing staff consider the over-politicization of the former line to have been detrimental to the final product. | |
