Companions for guidance, humour, and beautifully managed dread.
Art is a form of divination, whether we admit it or not.
The Existential Dreadling Artist Deck gathers all twenty-two Dreadlings into a single, tactile collection; a set of companions for those spiralling in style. Each card features an original illustration of a Dreadling on one side, and on the reverse, a distilled fragment of its lore: who they are, what they protect, and how they walk beside you through the mess of being.
It’s not a tarot deck. It’s not an oracle deck. It’s a coping mechanism disguised as art.
Use it as a daily pull, an altar companion, or an emotional support object, a reminder that dread is best managed with wit, beauty, and something to hold.
Artwork of the Dreadling (front)
Lore excerpt + how they protect you (back)
This edition functions as both art object and existential aid — part reflection, part reassurance.
Heavy-weight matte art cards (350gsm archival card stock)
Matte soft touch finish for tactile comfort
Wrapped in hand-inked paper and enclosed in a reusable black muslin tote
Hand-inked paper can be used as a “dreadling cards cloth”
This is the first print run, produced in a small batch.
Each deck in this initial release is exclusive to this version.
Future editions will be altered into a full divination-style deck — making this set a collector’s artefact from the pre-divinatory era of the Dreadlings.
HOWEVER YOU WANT. or, pull a card when you need clarity, validation, or proof that humour still exists. Display one on your desk, altar, or mirror. Gift one to someone who needs the strange companion.
Each deck arrives bound, wrapped in hand inked paper, and enclosed in its muslin tote — minimal, tactile, and ready to live in your bag, on your altar, or wherever meaning tends to accumulate.
