Signature Goth dance moves include: “Kick the Smurf,” “Washing the Windows,” “Changing the Lightbulb,” “Sweeping the Floor,” “Wiping the Cobwebs,” and “Stuck in My Coffin.” I went to the Vampire Convention last week and was at a loss for how to dance. If you ever find yourself in a roomful of Goths and need to bust a move, try these steps.

This video (from “Peanutgirly” in Germany) is also nicely illustrative. There is some debate as to whether her moves are truly Goth, or some type of unsanctioned hybrid.
