Ghost Ship Market was founded in 2023 by Riri of Fennel & Clark/Toccata & Fougère, after realizing that there was a dire need for goth-centric shows to serve both the New England goth community, as well as local goth artisans.

In 2026, ownership was transferred to Cass Warren of a Forest, then. Cass is an experienced artist, vendor, and event organizer, who hopes to carry on and push forward Riri’s legacy and love for Ghost Ship Market.

GSM events feature a wide variety of carefully curated creations, in many different types of media. Whether you’re looking for unusual jewelry,  metaphysical wares, mysterious oddities, engaging art, or a book to read, each vendor at Ghost Ship Market brings their own unique contribution to goth and witch cultures.

Visit one of our markets, and discover a tapestry of sights and sounds that resonate with the darker and magical sides of life. Find the perfect item for your house, your body, your mind, or even your soul.

At Ghost Ship Market, we celebrate diversity in all its forms, welcoming guests from every walk of life to join us. Whether you’re an elder goth, a baby bat, or somewhere in between, you’re welcome at our shows. Come, wander through the shadows with us, and experience the magic of Ghost Ship Market.

The Solstice Market is all about that late-summer feeling warm, a little chaotic, and full of really good finds. We’re bringing together a mix of artists, vintage curators, oddity artists, and small businesses that actually put time and care into what they make!

No AI, no reseller junk, no mass-produced nonsense!! Just real people making real things.

We’ll have tattooing happening during the event with flash designs available, plus the Taste Garden Cafe food truck and Caffeine Coven keeping everyone caffeinated per usual

This is all happening at Mill Street Marketplace, which is home to 80+ permanent vendors inside, so there’s a ton to explore beyond the outdoor market as well. If you’ve never been, it’s basically a full day of wandering and finding things you didn’t know you needed.

Come hang out, take your time, and expect to leave with something good
