 Britain's Goth population, identifiable by its distinctive eye markings, peaked at around 90,000 in the
 1970s, but since then has been driven out of urban habitats by more aggressive, faster-breeding species
 like Chavs. While some Goths are expected to hibernate until the weather gives everyone less to be

 thrive best in gloomy autumnal
