Not specifically Gorey-esque as such, Dom, but of that kind of thing, yes.
Sort of Brummie-noir-with-hacked-to-pieces-theology.

Weirdly, and I suspect deliberately, reminiscent of Edward Gorey. I
keep expecting it to rhyme patly, and it keeps not doing so.
A is for Alfred, whom asthma attacked;
B is for Bart, by a maniac hacked.
C is for Cecil, crushed under a clock;
D is for Dina, who died of a shock...
