For a birthday gift for your dad who is interested in gothic subculture, here are some unique and personal ideas:

1. Customized Gothic Pendant: You can buy a personalized gothic pendant featuring elements like skulls, chains, and spikes. You can have his name, initials, or a gothic quote inscribed on it.

2. Art Print: Gothic art is very popular, you can find art prints of gothic-inspired illustrations, paintings, and photographs. You can also commission an artist to create a custom art piece inspired by your dad's tastes.

3. Gothic Literature: Gothic literature is fascinating, and you can choose from classics like Bram Stoker's Dracula, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and Edgar Allan Poe's Tales of Mystery and Imagination.

4. Gothic Music: Gothic music is eclectic and covers a wide range of sub-genres like darkwave, industrial, and post-punk. You could buy CDs or vinyl records, or even a subscription to a music streaming service.

5. Gothic Decor: You can help your dad create his own gothic-inspired space with antique or vintage furniture, gothic-style candles, candelabras, and sculptures. You could also buy gothic throw pillows, bedding, and curtains.

6. Gothic Jewelry: You can buy gothic-inspired jewelry made of silver, black stones, and leather. Rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and cufflinks are some options you can consider.

7. Gothic Clothing: You can buy clothing items like black trench coats, leather jackets, boots, and hats. You could also buy gothic t-shirts, hoodies, and sweatshirts with gothic prints.

8. Gothic-themed Games: Gothic-style board games like Betrayal at Baldur's Gate, Mysterium, and Mansions of Madness can be great options. You could also buy console games like Bloodborne and Dark Souls.

9. Experience gifts: If your dad would rather have an experience, consider gifting him tickets to a goth festival or a haunted house tour. You could also organize a surprise gothic-themed party or dinner for him with his closest friends.

Whatever gift you choose, make sure it reflects your dad's interests and tastes. With a little creativity and thoughtfulness, you can surprise him with a unique and meaningful birthday gift that shows how much you care.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
