Now That’s What I Call
Ghost Cats!
Occult rock. Theatrical horror. Now with 100% more cats.
Not available in any store!*
Ghost built a whole religion around a satanic anti-pope in face paint, and somehow that became the most charming thing in heavy metal. Tobias Forge writes soaring, irresistible hooks dressed up in ceremonial robes and called it damnation — which honestly sounds exactly like what it feels like to own a cat. The Ghost Cats collection honours the theatrical grandeur of the Papas with the same energy: deeply dramatic, suspiciously catchy, and worshipped by everyone in the room.
Papa Emeritus has a confession: the official Ghost merch is fine, but he keeps a Ghost Cats tee folded under his ceremonial vestments for the after-show. The Nameless Ghouls have all ordered one — they just can't tell you which alchemical symbol is their size.

Liner notes
Ghost won the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance for 'Cirice', beating out August Burns Red, Lamb of God, Sevendust, and Slipknot. 'Cirice' is from Meliora.

What the operators are hearing
“I couldn't wait to open the package and see my shirt. I swear I heard angels sing when I held it up. I have the matching Ghost shirt, too, and 2 cats. What could be better than a perfect combination??”
“Review title says it all, right? :-) I am more than happy with the quality! Keep up the good work!”
Frequently screamed questions
Is Ghost Cats an official Ghost / Tobias Forge product?
Nope — Ghost Cats is an original parody design by Brutal Kittens, an independent cat-metal merch brand. We worship at the altar of the Papas, but this is our own unholy creation.
Which Ghost album does the 'Opus' design reference?
The Ghost Cats – Opus design riffs on the visual language of Opus Eponymous (2010), Ghost's legendary debut — the one that made occult rock cool again. We figured cats deserved the same sinister gravitas.
Do Ghost Cats shirts fit true to size?
Yes — our tees, hoodies, crop tops, and tank tops are all true to size. Check the size guide on each product page; our verified buyers consistently report accurate fit.
What's the deal with the Nameless Ghouls — are they really anonymous?
Officially, yes. Ghost's backing musicians perform masked and unnamed, identified only by alchemical symbols. In practice, the identities have been an open secret for years. The cats, however, will never tell.
Does Brutal Kittens ship internationally?
Yes — the Ghost Cats collection ships worldwide via our fulfilment partner Fourthwall. Shipping rates and delivery times appear at checkout.
