The Nosferatu

The Nosferatu are a UK gothic rock band formed from the ashes of the original Rise era Nosferatu formed in 1987, playing rousing rock anthems, with thunderous guitars and exquisite symphonic orchestration, combined with booming baritone vocals.

Nosferatu gained attention in the 1990s despite the malaise in the UK press and record industry against gothic rock and eventually established their own label with distribution deals in the UK with Red Rhino/Vital, Germany with EFA and USA/Mexico with Cleopatra. Despite little UK coverage the band scored several Indie Chart Top 20 positions in the UK.

Nosferatu released 5 EPs and 3 albums before originally imploding in 1994.

Since reforming in 2019 The Nosferatu have played many successful shows and festivals and last year alone played to large audiences in Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Ireland and Mexico including an appearance at Whitby.

Scheduled to play Castle Party and Stella Nomine this year, these shows are their only UK appearances in 2024.

Our special guests are Killing Miranda, recently reformed after their appearance at Bellefest in honour of former drummer and legend Belle Star (also a former member of Nosferatu).

Regulars at European festivals and touring with the likes of Paradise Lost. Killing Miranda developed an industrial metal sound with glam and goth influences.
