I think all of us know about the book called ‘Scary Stories to Tell in The Dark.’ And if not, most of us have at least seen the movie that came to the big screen a while ago. And while it may not have been everyone’s favorite movie, we can all admit what made it great was the terrific job they did with the monsters. The Pale Lady still gives me nightmares. And they did all of the monsters with mostly prosthetics and only some CGI which is what makes them even more terrifying.
However, a part of the horror is because of the original illustrations in the book itself. The creators of the movie might have done a great job at adapting it to the big screen but a lot of props go to the artist. And that is probably why another artist wanted to reimagine some of the classic horror icons in the imagery of Scary stories to tell in the dark.
And when I say these are worse than my nightmare demons, I am not joking around. You can see for yourself by scrolling below.
