I can’t wait to get this deck. I don’t really care about the book, unless they would’ve had the movie explanations. The art and the key word can be used strictly with intuition…some cards may be harder to connect to but I’m totally ok with that ❤ thank you for your review😊
Hard no for me, however, you should keep the cards and use them when you have a Halloween party, either as invitations or at the place settings. I think they would be adorable as decoration like that.
I appreciate you sharing this as I've not seen it. With that in mind, I'm not an oracle follower and do find some of the key words questionable in terms of advice and relating to the cards. I agree with you that it would be helpful to have a brief synopsis of film plots in the guidebook. I do find the art style striking and intriguing. I wonder a bit about the concept behind a deck such as this as it seems more a movie memorabilia deck than a helpful oracle and I don't generally associate horror movies with helpful advice other thab don't act rash and follow your good instincts to avoid shady business. In the end, I leave it to others to decide how they feel about a deck like this.
Hey Robin! Thanks for checking the video out. This is a good reason I’m not big into oracle decks - the odd keywords and trying to match up with the descriptions is quite jarring. It’s a shame because I like the art. You’re absolutely right - this could be more of a novelty deck. At least, a deck someone can use to draw a card and watch the corresponding movie on the card. But after watching all the movies, I don’t see much use with this deck. Such a shame.
I hope you are feeling better! Uou are right about the guidebook. This is exactly what I don't like about oracle decks. What am I supposed to do with this card? Happy spooky season!💜🎃
Feeling much better. This is probably the most disappointing deck I pre ordered. 😕 the cards are worthy of putting in a frame or even a coffee table book, but I may end up returning it.
Hello from the pines of Arizona! 🌲🌞🐂 I think i would have liked it better if the movie name was on the cards instead of the incongruous key words. This is a deck that's tempting but i probably won't buy. I'll wait and see if it comes to me.
Hi! Hope you’re doing well. They could have put the movie on the cards and use that space in the book to add the plot to the movie. At this point in time, I don’t think the deck is a good fit. Thanks for watching and sharing 💚
You’re right! Chucky would fit right in. Some of the sci-fi cards could have been replaced with different movies. Thanks for watching and reminding me of Chucky. I wonder what the keyword would have been 🤔
@@TarotbythePines for a Chucky card I think the keyword should have literally been “child’s play” and could talk about battling childhood traumas Reverse reminding us to find our youthful/playful side and not lose it in responsibilities and commitments.
Agree with you, art work is neat. I've only seen a few of the movies so it def did not resonate with me. The Jaws card was my favorite, I have a Jaws themed bathroom 😆🦈
The art itself would make horrifying actual movie posters you could hang on the wall. It’s a shame. Some card descriptions work, but many don’t. Thanks for stopping by and sharing 💚
Interesting! I think you nailed this review exactly right. Artwork is really unique and interesting but the pairings of the keywords to the description and upright statement are very odd. I'm not a horror person AT ALL so I agree, more about the movies would make it more accessible to people who haven't seen them. I enjoyed seeing your in-depth walkthrough of the book!
Instead of relying on the guidebook (it's someone else's interpretation of what the card is anyway), use your own knowledge of the films and own ideas of what the card suggests to you. Also the lack of information or lack of knowledge of films may lead to further research of your own (people are so lazy these days and can't be bothered to do research!) 🤷🏻♀️ that's the idea of the book it's just a "guide" it's not written in stone! Come up with your own words and keywords. Take what resonates as they say, and leave the rest! I wonder what they would look like paired with the universal monster tarot... 🧐
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by and sharing. You’ve brought up some valid points. I really love the artwork, but I’m conflicted. I might give it another chance. I’m sure it’ll go beautifully with the Universal Monsters tarot - another deck I wasn’t a fan of 🤣
Yeeeeeaaaahhhh… I don’t like the artwork enough to forgive the ball drop on the guidebook. I won’t be purchasing. I love that Evil Dead II was included (my favorite in the series) but I agree with the commenter who mentioned that they skipped Child’s Play! What a missed opportunity! I’m still looking for the *perfect* horror oracle… Thank you for reviewing!
Thanks for watching and sharing! Although not horror but The Halloween Oracle by Stacey Demarco is pretty good. If you’re looking for a horror tarot, you may want to try Todd Alcott’s Horror Tarot which I just acquired. Will do a review on that soon. 🧡
@@TarotbythePinesyes, I have Todd Alcott’s Horror Tarot and Pulp Tarot-ADORE them both!! 😍😍 Just looking for a good oracle to pair them with… it’s a never ending obsession, I’m discovering 😅😆

Hi Jason, love the T-shirt, caught my eye right away. Happy halloween and seasonal greetings from Belgium xxx Gert
Hi Gert! Thanks for stopping by. I got the shirt when I was in Rhode Island at a “Halloween-y” store. 🎃💚
Thank you! This was very helpful video 🙏
Thanks for watching and that makes me happy 🧡🎃

Right here with you on being disappointed that Chucky didn’t make the cut.

@@TarotbythePinesokay, yes. The Stacey Demarco Halloween Oracle might fit the bill. Thank you for the suggestion!
Because I'm not a fan of horror films, this deck is not for me.
Even a fan of horror, it’s just not my cup of tea 😫
