The clouds over the cemetery gave it an ominous feel.
You got that right I was supposed to be going the following day too but woke up to torrential rain, turned into a complete was out the next day, which was a shame. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
No problems Alan thanks for your reply, I have to say your coverage is much better than most, watched a couple of others that use a lot of footage on Morris dancers etc, we want to get the atmosphere that you seem to capture better than the rest. best regards Ron H.
What a fabulous show, the costumes are amazing and its all free to watch, top marks to the goths that attend for all the effort they have put in and the many miles some have travelled, thanks for the post great to watch for people like me who are not that mobile these days.
Glad you enjoyed it and sorry to hear you not as mobile now as it was such a fun day and a brilliant atmosphere all day as well, I really enjoyed my time there. Thanks very for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
Wow, what a very exciting trip in Festival Whitby Goth. The view is beautiful, I really enjoy watching this footage. Stay connected

Hello Alan I was there on Saturday been going to whitby for 50yrs being going to goth and steampunk festival for last 10yrs absolutely brilliant my wife and kids get dressed up I don't 😂 it's the busiest I've ever seen it hopefully I will bump into you and say hello steampunk a great day out too . Atb Nigel
Yes, please come over if you see me and I really want to go to the Steel Punk Festival next year, I was going this year right up to the last minute but next year for sure. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
Spooky music 🎶 what an incredible place..everything is Halloween special! Big thumbs up my friend 👍 Great Halloween costumes and accessories 👌 Thanks for sharing this awesome video.😊❤😊
Thanks for visiting, real good of you to watch and take the time to leave a comment, very much appreciate, cheers Alan
Spooky trip. That looked like a great festival to check our. Kristy would absolutely love hanging out here and checking out the sights. Halloween is her favorite Holiday of the year and the costumes and other goods on display fit right in with how she likes to decorate for the season. I'm amazed at how big of an area the festival covers. Tons of people playing the part and attending as well. Super cool. Thanks for the tour. Have a great day.
Such a a great day and such a massive amount of people there, never seen Whitby so busy before but even with the massive crowds, the atmosphere was brilliant all day, a whole lot of fun. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Always amazing to see the elaborateness and time that some of those costumes must take. My goodness, there are some pretty ominous looking people in that crowd! lol Some fun and great times for everyone just to enjoy. Bruce and Otis
Couldn't agree more and a real fun day and despite the massive crowds a real goof vibe all day too, shame the following day rained, as I had intended to go back for the second day too. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, what wonderful views from behind you at the Cemetery in Whitby. Lots of fantastic costumes and like you say very busy. Enjoyed your tour around Whitby and the shops. The music and sound effects were brilliant, thank you for sharing, take care x Julie and Tony x
Glad you enjoyed it and it was such a fun day, really enjoyed it but man was it busy, never seen so many people before in Whitby. Despite the massive crowds and the long wait for my fish n chips the atmosphere all day was brilliant. Thanks very much for watching, cheer Alan
0:10 Oh, oh ........ 1:23 The SHIP of the DAMNED !!!!! .... 3:45 Window shopping has NEVER been more SCARY !!!! .... 8:40 Oh MY GOODNESS !!!!! ..... The clouds really work with the scenery and theme .... 15:04 Nice.
Pleased Mrs Metalman cried off at the last second, as it would have cost me a fortune lol! Real fun day, great vibe and despite the huge crowds, everyone was in great spirits! Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan
Look absolutely fantastic. Wow that was a spooky train ride.fantastic look around the pavilion and a cheeky look inside some of the great shops. The October one is absolutely crazy busy now. I bet they are booking those B and Bs now for next year! Your certainly covering some miles on this one, its surprising how many you do on every visit to Whitby! Wow the bridge is very quiet, didn’t stay like that for long. The Jason/Halloween character was very scary. Oh the temperance society were there, missed them! Definitely the busiest we have seen it. Oh you caught Noi Dennis, i missed her yesterday. The Abbey was closed due to being water logged from the day before.we had to forgo our fish and chips, the queues were insane, but like you say the spirits were high and everyone was enjoying it! Love your face on the busy streets, priceless! Superb coverage Alan! 👍
I was going to say I am surprised I never saw you but then again, I was surprised I was even able to move at a few points, it was mental but also fun as well. I had to force my way on to the train, the guard said it was full but I had stood for 30 minutes and paid for a ticket, so there was no way I was not getting on that train lol. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMANthat train looked to be full of characters too! Think that bit is a video in itself. I made the mistake of not heeding my own advice and thinking i could get parked in Whitby. After driving around all of it three times i had to give up (couldnt even find any pay for parking) and ended up parking in Sandsend.we saw a few people we knew on the bridge but it was impossible to get to them. When we got back last night we were exhausted, mentally and physically. Fell asleep almost immediately! Great day though and all very lovely people!
@@GENerationXplorers - I had intended to do the Park and Ride but, just before Whitby, thought I would go to the Abbey to park but at the very last second remembered where we parked in April and ended up parking in the exact same spot, as the rest of the parking (in front of the toilets) was full.
Here we are again. A really great festival. We were at one such festival a long time ago. Bio je to Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Germany was also phenomenal. I like that there are still such events because we used to have a lot of fun and we had a really big selection of music. I like the decorations and masks that are sold. Cheers Alan and have a nice weekend. Sretana and Zac. ✌😁🤗
Sounds great and I would have enjoyed that one too. The weekend starts with a music festival on the Friday night and does not finish until Sunday night but Sunday was a wash out unfortunately, awful heavy rain but thankfully I got a great day on Saturday. Appreciate you watching, cheers Alan
I like that dress jacket... Man, I love Halloween. It is my favorite holiday. This is your finest work thus far. Great editing, the music is perfect and your use of colors helps the viewer stay involved.
Thanks so much, really appricate you watching and kind words. I have had that jacket for years and had a bowler hat to go with it but despite looking I could not find it. A real great festival, shame the second day was a wash out, so real lucky I went on the first day, cheers Alan
Hi friend, Cool place! Thanks for sharing! Happy Halloween 🎃 🎃🌕🕸🕷🪦⚰🧟♂ 🦇 👍
Thank you! You too! Such a fun day and such a fun event, I will be back next year for sure. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Mr. Alan
Happy Halloween! Trick or Treat! oops, this is Goth Festival.
OMGoodness, PPL are very serious about their costumes. I like your jacket as well.
You creative editing and choice of music enhance the mood of the film, it is so scary haha
Exploring the shops is fun, especially costumes...
I cannot believe PPL come back for this event every year with their own costumes.
Very flattering to see the shops and other businesses seem busy. Like support local businesses.
Thank you so much, Mr. Alan for taking us to the Goth Festival with you....wow it gives me goosebumps..haha
I am glad to hear your recovery went well. Take it easy once it gets cold. See you next time.
Yes, people come from all over the world for this weekend and all the hotels and B&Bs are booked up months in advance, so I am lucky we only love about 70 miles away so can drive there and back on the day. Always a fun event too and despite the crowds of people and very busy shops and pubs the atmospheres was brilliant, I really enjoyed it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
OMG! the Whitby Goth Halloween festival looks so awesome and fun! i wish i were there! Great editing and brilliant music choice!
Thank you so much and you got that right it was so much fun, I loved it. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
What a great time to be in the wonderful Whitby Alan. Whitby is just made for Halloween particularly the Abbey and its cemetry. Loving the music and seeing everyones costumes. It is crazy busy though!
It sure is, never seen Whitby so busy before but I had a great day, the atmosphere was brilliant all day, shame the rain came the following day as I had intended to go back for day 2 as well. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Wow Alan, what a festival! Spooky, and the music and that sky really fit the vibe. So crowded and tight spots. Great video, cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for stopping by. Whitby is an hour away from us so a place we do visit a lot every year but the Goth weekend is a real highlight, cheers Alan
Iconic place and event. Great for the finances of Whitby.
Totally agree but was just reading of a lot of local councillors complaining as this year had been so busy, which it was but the atmosphere when I was there was brilliant all day. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
Great festival celebration and beautiful place, Happy Halloween
Thank you! You too! It was a real fun day with a great bunch of people. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Well presented and a great musical effect soundtrack. Loved it❤❤
Thank so much Annette, real nice of you to watch and take the time to a comment, appreciate your kind words as well, cheers Alan
What a great location for a Halloween episode 😊 🎃👍. We were glad to see you return as we enjoyed the video of the goth festival you did last year. Although super busy, it looked like a nice safe atmosphere, with everyone getting along. Some fabulous costumes, and it was great to see the town so bustling. Whitby has been on our to do list for ages now, we really must visit one day, we are big horror fans so we would love this! Right we are blaming you entirely for our chippy tea tonight Alan 😂🙈. Couldn't resist after spotting those fish and chips 😋. Thanks for the tour around, have a great weekend,
Shell and Pete😊👊👍
The atmosphere al day was brilliant, I really enjoyed the whole day and had intended to go back on the Sunday as well but heavy rain put paid to that unfortunately. If you can get there or just thinking about it - do it, it's a brilliant placer at any time of the year but particularly the two Goth weekends. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Very cool !!!!
Appreciate you stopping by, a great day out, really enjoyed it, cheers Alan
Amazing Gothic Halloween wow👍🤟🤜🤛🤟♠️♠️♠️♠️!!!! Incredible Vinyls and skulls. I'm like the video!!!!
Thanks for watching, real good of you to stop by and the Goth Festival at Whitby is a real highlight every year now, always look forward to it, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN Is amazing Halloween party!!!! Cheers my Brother 🤟👊🤜🥁🤛👊🤟🏞🏤♠️♠️♠️♠️
So nice to YOU ❤❤❤❤❤sharing
Thanks for visiting, real good of you to watch and take the time to leave a comment, very much appreciate, cheers Alan
I'm back hehe and this was so good to watch and very atmospheric for Halloween and that train did seem packed !
Whitby is the perfect place for this festival and I enjoyed your walk around accompanied by perfect music and sounds 😃It was so busy and I loved the goths in the graveyard and all of the costumes that everybody wore. Oo the fish and chips seem popular there too if the queues are that long hehe. That was really good Alan and the harbour was so beautiful at the end plus you got to walk off the fish and chips aftwwards too 😃
Cant leave another like so I'll leave 👏👏 ! ~ Anna
It was such a great day, great fun, brilliant people and such a great vibe despite the big crowds. The train was packed and the guard said it was full but as I had waited 30 minutes (it was 15 minutes late) and I have bought a ticket, there was absolutely no way I was not getting on lol. Mrs Metalman cried off last minute which I was initially disappointed about but as I was walking around those shops I though - thank goodness, she would have spent a fortune lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
This is so magnificent 😮I would love to see this for myself! Lucky I have met you and you brought me here because I haven’t a clue when I would be able to get there on my own! Absolutely brilliant! Loved watching! Great fish n chips too! Hope the walk back wasn’t too far!
Thanks so much for watching Donna and it was such a great day, real fun, amazing people and a great vibe all day long. The fish n chips were well worth the long wait and thankfully it was only a 20 minute power walk back to the car. Take care, cheers Alan
Nice one Alan, that looks amazing, must bring so much money in to the town. I’ve never heard of it, thanks for sharing it with us mate, absolutely brilliant! 😀
Glad you enjoyed it Dave and they hold two a year, April and October as well as a summer Steam Punk Festival, a good way to bring the crowds in. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
Ahh great fun Alan, I was just gutted we missed it. We got to Whitby for Halloween, I was expecting quite a bit of fancy dress but unfortunately it wasn't to be. We had a great time as it was our first time there but I'm gutted I missed this spectacular! Looked ace pal and hopefully I'll catch you there next time year!
Yep I will be back again for sure, it was great fun and despite the huge crowds the atmosphere all day was brilliant. I enjoyed it so much I was all set to go back on the Sunday too but woke up to torrential rain, so binned it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
😱🧛♂ Whitby Goth Fest was epic! 🎃 Loved the spooky vibes and those fish & chips - worth the wait! 🍟👻 Back soon for sure! 👍
Yes it was and I cannot wait to go back, love Whitby anyway but made even better when the Goth weekend is on, such a brilliant atmosphere. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
have a great week my friend
You too John and thank so much for stopping by and dropping a comment, cheers Alan
Great video Alan. Thank you for sharing
No problem and good of you to stop by and drop a comment, good of you, cheers Alan
Awesome
Appreciate you stopping by Dave and what a great day out it was, really enjoyed it, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN my pleasure.
Alan, I love your coat , brother. Man , the music made everything feel spooky even when it wasn't spooky, lol. It sure highlights how effective music can be to setting tone in a video. There are lots of nice costumes there from people there. That's so fun to see.
Glad you enjoyed it and I have had that jacket for years now even been to two different weddings with it too lol. A real fun day out and a brilliant weekend, I had intended to do the Sunday as well but heavy rain stopped the fun unfortunately. Thank so much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Nice upload. See you again 🤚🤚my friend 💞💞
Thanks for visiting, real good of you to watch and take the time to leave a comment, very much appreciate, cheers Alan
I was a goth in my teenage years so my younger self would have loved this. Im quite impressed with how mamy high quality costumes i saw in your video so its nice too see goths are still going strong. Excellent video, have a great sunday, cheers from barnyz
Thanks very much for watching and I totally agree the detail in some of those costumes was amazing, they really made an effort and it was such a fun day too, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, I love seeing videos about the Whitby Goth Festival. I remember last year's video with your YT friends. You yourself looked very dapper! The costumes were absolutely fabulous. It was fantastic to see so many people enjoying the occasion. The view of you beside the graveyard wall looking out to sea was totally awesome. Great to see all the cool shops selling amazing clothes, records, and ornaments. "Fatboy" size fish and chips! 😂You captured the atmosphere brilliantly. I really enjoyed it ❤
Such a fun day and a fun weekend too but unfortunately day 2 was a wash out due to heavy rain, as I had intended to go back for the Sunday as well (we only live 70 miles away from Whitby). Been going to Whitby for over 30 years but never seen it so busy, but the atmosphere all day was brilliant, everyone having a great time, which was really good to see and be a part of. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Looks a popular festival , some of the outfits looked really creepy, good video mate , looked a fun festival in a really nice place too , atb 👍
Thanks for the visit Gaz, appreciate you watching buddy. Never seen Whitby so busy but it was a great day, great people and such a brilliant atmosphere too, cheers Alan
Brilliant vid Alan. I really enjoyed it. I've never been to Whitby, I must go to one of these Goth weekends. Loads of people getig into the spirit of it. 15 mins for fish and chips - not bad in a crowd like that :) You've got some great viewing numbers for this vid too, well done! All the best, Rob
It was after 15.00 before I got my fish n chips and I was starving then, as my dinner time is normally 12.00 but worth it, they were amazing, as the the festival, great fun all day and an amazing vide all day too. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
Very Goth! Fun to see so many people dressed up and out enjoying the Whitby Festival! Lots of witches and scary undertakers! Lots of great costumes. Fun to have a look around the streets and stores too.. I would enjoy having a bat or two and a black cat. 😉👻👻👻 Happy Halloween Alan! 🎃🎃👍👍
The same to you too and a real fun day, only spoilt by the heavy rain the next day, which stopped me going back for day 2. I have been going to Whitby every year for over 30 years but never seen it so busy as that but a great atmosphere all day long. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan
It looked really fun and busy! I’d love to have some fresh UK fish and chips! @@AlanMETALMAN
Great 👍
Thanks for the visit. real good of you to stop by, cheers Alan
Cool video! Its a great event for the area.
It sure is and a real good weekend, great vibe all day, despite the big crowds and so much fun. I had intended to come back on the Sunday but woke up to torrential rain, so that put paid to that. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
Great tour of goth weekend Alan 😊 it looks so busy there, lots of great shops and costumes. One of these years I’ve got to get round to visiting on this weekend 😊
You should, it's great fun and despite all the crowds (it was packed) the atmosphere all day was brilliant. I did intend to go back on the Sunday without my camera just to fully enjoy the whole day but woke up to torrential rain on Sunday morning. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, wow some of them costumes people do put a lot of effort in, pleased you battled through the crowds instead of me LOL, did visit Whitby last Saturday to see the Abbey all lit up was impressive, so you went for the small portion of fish and chips then LOL, lovely walk back to Ruswarp, did enjoy the video cheers nigel
Glad you enjoyed it and never seen so many people in Whitby before but the atmosphere was brilliant all day. I fancied seeing the Abbey all lit up too but did not fancy the walk back to the car in the dark, especially so close to Halloween lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Awesome! We were unaware of such a festival but it looks awesome! Loved seeing all of the costumes (and that cemetery looked especially interesting!!) Happy Halloween!
Thank you so much 🤗 and that same to you both too. Such a fun day and despite the massive crowds the atmosphere all day was brilliant. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
I saw you at the church yard on Saturday and I thought to myself, you look familiar, then I see myself stood next to my daughter and her besties at the 11.57 mark and realise where I know you from, your RUclips videos 😆. Great video and hope to see you next year.
Haha, how weird was that, I got a should at the April festival from a guy who watches my hiking videos who said "well, I never expected to see you here" lol. Real good day and brilliant event I will be back next year for sure. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
What a awesome festival. We don't see that around here. Loved seeing the ocean there.
Thanks for visiting and yes it was a real fun day, I really enjoyed it. I was due to go back the following day too but the heavy rain put paid to that unfortunately, cheers Alan
Thats roght up my street alan the gpth festival looks like so much fun! I bet the communte alone is a unique experience with so many people dressed up. Amazing costumes and the town looks so cool. Love all the shops!
It is always a great event and despite all the crowds, the atmosphere all day was amazing, real fun day, just a shame Mrs Metalman had to cry off at the last minute. On reflection, maybe it was a good thing, as she would have spent a fortune in those shops lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheer Alan
Now that looked like an extremely cool event to attend. I’ve been a big fan of Vampires and Goth since 1988. I would love to see where Dracula was written. Cheers to ya good sir. 🤙🤘
Only an hour from where we live so a nice local event for me and it was such good fun, really enjoyed it despite the crowds. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan
I'm so glad you came back because I loved your last video here! This video was even better because there were even more people and more costumes! Looks like a great time! People of all age there! The shops had some really great merchandise for the festival! Awesome video, Alan! Thank you so much for sharing! Great job with the filming and editing 👌 👏.
Thank you so much, real good of you and it was an absolute blast to get back, only bad thing was I missed the Steam Punk Festival that was held in the summer, as it was a complete wash out with the weather but I will be doing that next year as well as the two Goth Festivals again. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Hi Alan this looks great! We are out for the afternoon so I'll catch it properly tonight. Leaving a like in advance! ~ Anna 👍
I hope you have a great day, it's been 18 hours non stop rain Up North lol. Take care, cheers Alan
That looks like an amazing event. Great costumes and vibes and the views were amazing. Love all the headstones. And yes fish and chips yummy ❤ your t shirts are amazing 😍😍
Thanks so much, real nice of you to stop by and good to see you out on another great meet up. Love this event, only an hour from us and a great vibe all day, shame it rained the second day, as I had intended to go back for that too. Cheers Alan
Great video Alan, good to see what I missed out on. The weather looked excellent. I think the most disturbing sight in the video was your jacket. I would have put money on you turning out in something black.
It's more Steam Punk I would say but the=n again it was different for just about anybody else, which I enjoyed. I hope your cold is getting better now. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
Nice share New friend 🤝👌👍
Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real nice of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
Haha way too scary for me this one lol I'd be heading for the hills 🤣😆 Pleased you had a good day .. Looking forward to your hotel review 😊
That will be out next Sunday Christine and I need to get another hike in myself but the weather had been awful, fingers crossed it will be improving next week. A real fun day in Whitby, despite all the crowds and the long wait for my fish n chips lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
So cool. Nothing like that near me in the States!
Whitby is only an hour away from me and they do the Goth weekend twice a year so always a great weekend event, great vibe and brilliant people. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, cheers Alan
I've always wanted to go but obviously it's a VERY long way - plus, I have always been terrified of being underdressed!
We are about an hour from Whitby so a place we visit a lot every year but the Goth Weekends are a real highlight, so much fun and despite the enormous crowds the atmosphere was brilliant all day. I had intended to go back for the Sunday as well but the awful weather put paid to that. I am sure you would never be underdressed and it would be great to see you there. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN *blushing* you never know!
This looks great, you presented everything so nicely! Music and effects fits masterfully Alan 👏👏
Such a fun day, I was going to go again today but the rain had really kicked it, so happy with the one day I got. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Ive never been to the goth festival Alan but it looks interesting. Some of the costumes were amazing 🙂
It's great fun Kerry and despite the massive crowds the atmosphere was brilliant too. I enjoyed it so much I had intended to go back on the Sunday without my GoPro but woke up to torrential rain, so binned it. They run it twice a year as well as a couple of Steam Punk Festival weekends too. Real good of you to watch, cheers Alan
Thanks very much for the video Alan. Tried see, if I could recognize anyone. But didn't see the ones I knew where there.
Looked like a great time. Myself don't eat fish, but one of the places had an awesome hunters meal/steak when I was there.
It was actually busy when I was there last time (been there twice), cause it was high season for vacation in UK then. But I never been there through the Gothic Weekend. Hope I can one day.
Happy Gothic Halloween Alan and cheers 🦇🖤🖤🎃🖤🖤🦇
It would be brilliant if you could get to visit in the Goth weekend, as I know you would enjoy it so much. I was going to go back again today, as I had so much fun but it has been torrential rail all day, so feel real sorry for anyone camping there. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN awww... here the weather is terrible too. Snow mixed with rain. Temperature close to zero. So gonna aee how it is in morning.
Have a great evening and cheers
@@Sanniz - yikes! Take care :o)
Great editing alan .defo need to get up to whitby for the goth festival next year .🎸
You should, it's great fun, I really enjoyed it, there is a great vibe there despite the massive crowds and the long wait to get fish n chips lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
I wonder how many of these folks are goth all year round and how many take the opportunity to do something different and only dress up for the event? Bet that beach area is quite nice during the summer months. Lots of really amazing outfits - seems like a blend of goth and Halloween themes though.
Good question and one I have thought of myself too but at the end of the day, a lot of people all having fun and the whole vibe all day was brilliant. It happens twice a year and is now a fixture in my calendar every year. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan
I normally go but, I thought it be to cold and busy I like April better xx
So pleased I went Saturday as the weather was great and I enjoyed it so much I had intended to go back on the Sunday too but woke up to torrential rain. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan
quite a spectacle alan👹 good for the local economy.££ wouldn't fancy wearing them big black boots for a fell walk🥴 snazzy jacket mind👍
Haha, yes had to if years, so the perfect place to get it out again. Those fish n chips shops must have made a mint, I was trying to get some from 12.30 but it was 15.30 before I managed and had to Q up outside for 15 minutes - I was bloody starving when I got them lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN just makes them more enjoyable 😋
Hi Alan! Been awhile so I don't know if you remember me. I had forgotten how amazing
your videos are. I really enjoyed seeing all the costumes and people checking out other
people. I'm not good in crowds, so it was so great just to sit back and watch from my
computer. You look great and healthy. Hope to see you again. 🤗🎃🎃👻👻🕷🕷
Happy Halloween! 🤗🤗🎃🎃👻👻🕷🕷
I do indeed remember you Shirl and I hope you are okay and life has been treating you well. Mrs Metalman was also supposed to be going but cried off at the last minutes as she was worried about the large crowds too, which there was but the atmosphere all day was great, it was a real fun day. Thanks very much for watching, take care cheers Alan
@@AlanMETALMAN I didn't know if you would remember me. Things are getting better with me now. Thank you for asking. I was wondering about Mrs. Metalman and am happy to know that she is well too. Your videos are so beautiful and I enjoy them. All the best to you and the mrs. 🤗
@@ShirlBussman - Thank you Shirl :o)
@@AlanMETALMAN 🤗
We where there yesterday, daughter got loads of pictures taken as she is a goth
It was a fantastic day but man, never seen Whitby so busy before and I have been going for over 30 years lol, good to her you all enjoyed it too. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheer Alan
@@AlanMETALMANWe where caught up on the bridge twice and heading up to the steps...We will be back in October next year, might get to see you..
Another great METALMAN video to brighten up a miserable Sunday. Some amazing Goth costumes which were definitely out of this world. I have to ask how many Goth Festivals are there in Whitby? It seems that whenever you and GENeration Xplorers visit there’s a festival happening. Well done Alan and the fish & chips looked delicious. Cheers Mike 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Mike and there are two Goth Festivals every year and one Steam Punk Festival, which I must try and catch for the first time next year, real fun days. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan
Please send a video for this year was hoping to go but to poorly.. look forward to it thank you terri xx
Will do! I will be there on Saturday and the video will be out at 14.00 the following day. Dam shame you cannot make it and I feel your pain I had pneumonia for the last Goth Festival in April and was desperate to go but could not even get out of bed. Thanks very much for watching and get well soon, cheers Alan
This is something I've wanted to do in forever, wish I'd done it years ago now when it wasn't as popular, that's way too busy for me.
Where did you get the train from by the way?
And I've been dying to ask, where are you from? You sound from over my way, County Durham?
p.s. cool jacket Alan 🤘
It's a real fun day Julie and the first time I went (April) I went on the Sunday, which was a lot quieter. I spoke to a few friends who were this all said it was the busiest Saturday they had ever known, which is why Mrs Metalman was pleased she did not come. I got the parked and got the train from Ruswrap, which is one stop (5 minutes) train ride to Whitby and I walked back, which took me 20 minutes at a good pace. Yes, we are from Co Durham but 10 miles South of Durham City. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan
Thanks Alan, I'll remember that for the future, parking is a mare at the best of times in Whitby.
I might try Goth Weekend on the Sunday next year.
I'm about 8 miles south west of Durham too, we might be neighbours 😂
8:54. Who is that man on the left in the long black coat and dark brown hair? I need to know 👀
You got me there, I see him but I do not know him, maybe if he sees your comment he will make himself known. Thank you very much for watching, cheers Alan
