Let’s talk about Carlton Gebbia. Yes, the goth energy witch from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She only lasted one season. Yet, she’s unforgettable.
Carlton didn’t just show up. She materialized in a cloud of black lace and occult vibes. She was the anti-Beverly Hills.
Remember her house? It was like a Victorian vampire den. Dark walls, antique furniture, and a serious collection of taxidermy. So much dead stuff.
Must Read
The Witch Factor
Carlton was an actual practicing witch. Not the Halloween kind. The real deal with altars and spells. She even claimed her family built Stonehenge. (Wait, really?)
She brought a Wiccan priestess to a dinner party. The other ladies? Totally freaked. Kyle Richards looked like she’d seen a ghost. Pure comedy gold.
Carlton didn’t care. She wore a pentagram necklace like a badge of honor. She said her magic was “white light.” The other women called it “weird.”
Her Feud with Kyle Was Epic
Kyle and Carlton hated each other. It started over nothing. Then it got weird. Carlton accused Kyle of “not looking at her.”
Yes, you read that right. A huge fight about eye contact. Carlton claimed she could sense Kyle’s “negative energy.” Kyle just looked confused.
Then Carlton touched Kyle’s arm. And Kyle screamed, “Don’t put your weird witch stuff on me!” It was insane. It was perfect.
The Honeymoon Drama
Carlton went on a cast trip to the Four Seasons. She brought her husband. He spent the whole time naked by the pool. Not a swimsuit. Just skin.
The other husbands were horrified. Carlton didn’t blink. She said, “He’s European.” That was her excuse for everything. Naked? European. Creepy? European.

She also whipped out a knife at a party. For no reason. Just held it. And smiled. The editors added scary music. Pure gold.
The Crystal Collection
Carlton was obsessed with crystals. Not just regular ones. Meteorite crystals. She wore them in her hair. She put them in her drinks. For protection.
She gave Kyle a “healing” crystal. Kyle threw it away. Carlton was furious. She said, “You disrespected the universe.” Kyle said, “It’s a rock.”
That’s the whole show in a nutshell. Witch versus skeptical mom. The universe versus a rock. Brilliant TV.
Why We Love Her
Carlton was a disaster of a housewife. She was combative. She was moody. She had zero social skills. But she was never boring.
She didn’t care about fashion or money. She cared about energy and spells. She was a dark queen in a sea of blond highlights. She stood out completely.
She also had a pet servant. No, really. She called her housekeeper “my Filipino.” She was tone-deaf. But it was so weird you couldn’t look away.
The One-Season Wonder
Carlton was fired after one season. Bravo said she didn’t “mesh” with the cast. Translation: she scared everyone. And we loved every second.
Carlton: Kyle Has a Pack Mentality
She tried to come back. She posted online about being a “true witch.” She claimed the show cursed her. Wink, wink. It didn’t work.
But she remains a legend. In the fandom, we call her “The Occult Queen.” She’s the reason we watch Real Housewives—for the chaos.
Funny Details You Missed
Carlton once said she could “smell fear.” She said it to a room full of terrified women. Then she sniffed the air. Dead. She was joking? Probably not.
She also had a cry room. A literal room in her house for crying. It was soundproof and had black walls. She said it was for “primal screams.”
And she refused to wear makeup on camera. She wanted her “witch face” to show. Her skin was pale. Her eyes were dark. She looked like a ghost bride.
The Legacy
Carlton made Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stranger. And stranger is better. Without her, the show is just handbags and poolside gossip. She added actual magic.
Other housewives copied her vibe later. Erika Jayne wore dark makeup. Dorit talked about “energy.” But they’re not real. Carlton was authentically weird.
Now she runs a podcast about witchcraft. She still blames Kyle for everything. She still wears black. Some things never change. Thank goodness.
So pour a drink. Light a candle (black, obviously). And remember the season that gave us a real witch. She was a trainwreck. She was a treasure. She was Carlton.
