Dark and dismal (like the rivers in Hell) — isn't gay (anag) (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stygian

(Other definitions for stygian that I've seen before include "Gloomy or murky after the river Styx" , "underworld runner" , "Dark and gloomy, like the mythological river Styx" , "Very dark (poetic)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
