Top "Goth Girl" Actresses

They play dark or gothic roles onscreen, but are they really Goth girls in their private lives? You be the judge.
The Top Ten
1 Fairuza Balk

Probably one of the most gorgeous and best actresses of her time! Gas Food Lodging, Imaginary Crimes, Things to Do in Denver. But her Gothic appearances: ZZ Top's Break Away video, The Craft, The Island of Dr. Moreau, a really interesting Industrial Goth music video (can't say the name), made her a Gothic name to be reckoned with. But she's way more than that.

Interested in the occult: She once owned a store called Panpipes in Hollywood. She's also one of the few rare actresses that kept some of the Gothic look and lifestyle outside of her movie appearances, making her, in my own opinion, the queen of Goth actresses.

2 Helena Bonham Carter Helena Bonham Carter is an English actress. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as Kate Croy in The Wings of the Dove, and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Queen Elizabeth in The King's Speech.

The queen of all goth actresses!

3 Christina Ricci Christina Ricci is an American actress. She is known for playing unconventional characters with a dark edge.
4 Winona Ryder Winona Ryder is an American actress. One of the most profitable and iconic 1990s actresses, she made her film debut in the 1986 film Lucas.

A movie, the Beetlejuice cartoon, a game: Skeletons in the Closet. Her wedding red dress is iconic in Halloween parties, comics, a lot of fanfics on the internet.

Damn, this Goth princess is the queen of all!

She is simply adorable in Dracula. Loved her ever since. If she and Johnny Depp were still engaged, I think WR would have starred in even more TB movies than HBC. On the other hand, I don't think WR cares much about the Goth genre.
