Metal Skull Table Lamp Is Beyond Creepy
7:00AM Adam Frucci | Well, this is the most terrifying table lamp I’ve ever seen. Why anybody would want to stare at this thing every time they sit on the couch is beyond me. More »

Tibetan Monk Skull Pinhole Camera Probably Takes Afterworld Snaps (NSFW gallery)
4:00AM Jesus Diaz | This is Yama, a pinhole camera made of silver, gold, mercury, gem stones and a Tibetan monk skull blessed by a Lama. Even if I had the $US5,000 that it costs, I won’t buy it. More »

MP3-Playing, Photo Frame Skull Belt Buckle is Gothic Gadget Wrongness
7:52PM Kit Eaton | Sadly this doesn’t have “I am become death, the bringer of MP3s” inscribed upon it—it’d chime nicely with the ohmygod tackiness of the Digital Skull Belt Buckle. It’s in fact so terrible it’s wonderful: A metal belt-buckle in the shape of a skull with interchangeable modules in a cutout in the forehead. One’s a cheesy flashing LED light panel, the other’s a 1GB MP3 and video media-player that can also be a digital photoframe and comes with headphones. Passers-by will see your headphone cable disappearing apparently into your nether regions, but maybe you’ll see that as a plus. There’s no pricing info, but it’s out “soon” gothic gadget fans.

Bring the Sweet Stench of Death to Your Desk With More Gothic Peripherals
8:41PM Gizmodo US Edition | This week’s bad-taste webcam has been joined by more goth gear—this time a keyboard, mouse and mouse mat combo. Using the same recipe (take a perfectly ordinary set of computer stuff, liberally sprinkle with skulls, bones, rocks, random greenery and snakes) this time Evergreen has upped the gravestone action. Definitely one for peripherals-of-darkness fans, and any of you whose vehicle has the sticker: “If The Hearse Is Rockin’, Don’t Come Knockin’” displayed on its rear end. [Akihabaranews] More »
