Anything in Jamaica interesting for a couple of goths visiting?

Question

Me and my boyfriend are going to a wedding in Jamaica and every time we go to a new place we try to find the goth clubs/hangouts around. I don't really expect there to be much there, but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?

Answer 1

maybe check out Rose Hall Great House, it is supposed to be haunted.  Port Royal is also a good place to visit.

Answer 2

LMAO

Your going to be in Jamaica! Chill. Put your swim suit on, lay around with a pina colada and get some sun on your pale skin and just chill!

But.......if you went looking your could probably find some voodoo things and stuff that may be of interest to you.

Voodoo isn't real big there but it does go on.

Yes I know the diffrence between Haiti and Jamaica. But quit a few of the islands have small voodoo followers.

It does not have anything to do with goth - but it is a bit strange so I thought it may interest the asker. Research where you live and you will see that there are voodoo practices held on your island. Sorry but it's true

Well there's place in Montego Bay, St. James called Rose Hall. Rumor has it that a woman named Annie Palmer owned the sugar plantation, and took her slaves to bed, afterwards she'd kill them, maybe by poison, no one knows. This went on for a while, then one day she (Annie Palmer) was found dead, and no one knew how she died, many believe that she was killed by one of her slave lovers.

Then there is other place called Lover's Leap in St. Elizabeth, where a slave woman was in love with a slave a man, but the plantation owner was in love with the slave woman, and he threw the slave man over the cliff, the woman was mad, and killed the slave owner, and jumped to her own death over the cliff, and landed right beside the body of her true love....or something like that.

Also, there is Port Royal "The Sunken City" the nickname tell you exactly what it is, a sunken city, it is said that back in the day a lot of evil took place in tis city, and it got sunken by an earthquake. Don't know much about this one though.

There is something called a rolling calf, don't know much about this either.



You can sit at the root of a cotton tree in the night and try to see "duppies" i.e ghosts, I wouldn't recommend any of the last two, heck, I prolly wouldn't check out any of the above, because they sound scary.

But while you're there in this land of wood and water, take time out to enjoy the wood and water, go to the famous Blue Mountains, in Kingston and St. Andrew.

Visit:

1 Dunn's River Falls in St. Ann,

2 Hellshire Beach in Portmore

3 Mineral Bath in St. Thomas

And that's all I can think of right now.

Oh yeah, have fun on my lovely island ;)

Answer 4

Nothing here, I am afraid but our parties are always wild. I could help more with activities if I knew what city you would be in.

Answer 5

Baby love do u realize ur goin to JAMAICA!!!!! we aint got no "goth" stuff here psssshhhh come on. jus come and try to learn and observe a new culture who knows mayb ull like our dancehall and reggae music:-)

next, hisgirl is wrong we dont practice voodoo in jamaica thats HAITI!!!!(DUH) and its a religion and has nothing to do emos or goths which i personally think is a fad recently.

*edit* ok so pple who practice voodo come to jamaica.....how easy do u think it will be for her to find these people especially because its seems to be a smaaaaall minority better u did seh OBEAH or sumn i highly doubt that she is gona find anyone practicing voodoo and might i add i do reasearch my own country and the caribbean because i do caribbean history and sociology both at csec and cape level and it teaches that voodoo was formed in in haiti and does not mention it being practiced in jamaica which ur wikipedia link states. Sorry hisgirl my bad for not knowing that about 2 or three people practice voodoo in jamaica out of a population of millions. by the way wikipedia is not a reliable source as much like yahoo answers articles are posted by any and everybody and u do have people who love to talk wat they dont know.cough cough lol
