were can I find the bestiary?

You can't,  because it has not yet been published

(YES, BATS!)

Here in our little game community (currently my wife and I) Gothic is a long expected supplement. A Victorian setting is always better if you could add some zealots hunting vampires across Whitechapel.  I hope the bestiary will bring us bat and rat swarms, ghosts and spectres or even more frightening creatures (The lair of the White Worm monster? Maupassant's Horla? Hodgson's hideous pig monster? Also, a Prague Golem -although it was supposed to be destroyed by the Imperial Watch- would be nice...).

Oh, these little sneaky-peeks leave me salivating for the eventual release of IHMN Gothic. Although I do think it needs a different title, in keeping with the rest of the series (even though I know this will be a Ministry of Gentlemanly Warfare publication, not an Osprey product.) But with "Heroes, Villains and Fiends" and "Sleeping Dragon, Rising Sun," Gothic needs a suitable poetic title. May I suggest "Dark and Stormy Night"?

May I suggest "Dark and Stormy Night"?

Been at the creative writing classes again have we?  A suitable title is in the offing.

[Eisenfaust]

Sadly, no creative writing classes for me, not anymore. But I have been reading Jess Nevins' "Encyclopedia of Fantastic Victoriana."

I'm glad it's going to get a full title, whatever it is. While IHMN Gothic describes what it does on the tin, your book titles have been so poetic and descriptive.
