When researching some material for guest promotional blogs, I came across a quite extraordinary idea.

It seems you can now buy portraits that metamorphose from perfectly normal attractive photographs or paintings, into something grotesque, skeletal, ghostland/or demonic, right before your eyes..
It's certainly a novel way to redecorate - and maybe a radical gift idea for that horror loving friend who has everything.
I can (kind of) see them on the wall of an old, creaking house but am not at all sure about the concept when applied to a modern three bedroomed semi in leafy suburbia.
Mind you, if you want to be the star of the show, you can always order a customised ghost portrait - featuring yourself:

ReplyDeleteI thought you might, Steve!
DeleteVery disturbing. I saw a framed painting of a tree that went through the seasons as I walked around it. But these are definitely scarier.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I will have to look into getting some haunted portraits. My daughter and I are both big horror fans. :)
ReplyDeleteThere are quite a few suppliers - Haunted Portraits and Haunters Depot (both featured above)seem to have quite a selection between them but there's another one called Haunted Memories as well. And to think, if it wasn't for the research I was doing for my guest blogs, I never would have known...
DeleteCat you seem to know all this. Is that cos you bought em for your walls?
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm too chicken for that. I just researched it and the very nice man from 'Haunted Portraits' let me reproduce his pictures. On the other hand, Steve Emmett may just be making space on one of his walls...
