Pumpkin Plague

When Jack first started the CRISPR lab in his garage, he planned to make the most prolific and fast growing pumpkin plant the world had ever seen. In that he was successful, but when he accidently injected himself with the plant DNA, he doomed himself to slowly mutate into the very plant he desired and now he mindlessly seeks others to infect with parasitic pumpkin plants. This Halloween will be the greenest the world has ever seen, and the most horrific.

(Story and concept by Ethan Black)



 

Return of the Spider Witch

 I have redrawn the spider witch. Which was inspired by my childhood horror sounds CD. A Night in the Graveyard.  I like this version a bit more. She is more creature like and menacing than the old woman crawling with spiders I created previously. Which do you like more? Why? 

Thank you, and stay spooky!

Glowing Bones


 One of my coworkers printed this glow in the dark skeleton for me and he now "lives" in my truck. You just can't get enough skeletons.

Spider Witch

 The Spider Witch was drawn with inspiration from a childhood horror sound effects CD that I listened to far more than any normal person would. The Cd is a tour of a haunted house and graveyard. In the graveyard you encounter a coven of witches who cast curses on your group. One of the witches says "Web of spider, evil eye! Cloak of darkness! YOU WILL DIE!" and three or four people start screaming. The CD is called A Night in a Haunted House / A Night in a Graveyard. (Thank you to my pal John Davis for helping me find the title.) Even as I post this, I consider that I can do something ore interesting with this concept. The Spider Witch may return soon with a brand new look. 

Stay spooky, freaks.

We Need to talk about Kevin


 Our kitten Kevin has had some serious health problems and the vet is not sure of the cause. He is a sweet baby and our friends have helped out far more than I can every return. This is among the many many reasons for my absence for so long, but I am back on track now. 

Jason


 July, August, September, October, November

To me, Jason is the official Mascot of Summerween. 
I am not sure how I feel about summerween, but he has a strong connection to it in my mind. Camping and the outdoors seem to be summer time activities for a lot of people. Not me. I like the cold, I like autumn time outside. What about you?

String of Pearls Cauldron


I love making my house plants fit my spooky aesthetic year around. Planting in cauldrons is my go to for achieving this. I also use skulls, Jack O Lantern containers and anything else that adds haunt to my house. 

String of Pearls house plants are easy to keep alive and to propagate, but be warned, they are very toxic to cats, especially the blooms. I love the way they look like a boiling cauldron, but I do not keep any in my house due to our kittens. Enjoy with caution.

Here is the Thing


 I painted this a few months ago and sold it right away. I guess they needed a hand around the house. (We can't afford good jokes here, what do you want?) lol

Zelda, Zatara, and a Million Other Things

 

Yes, I have disappeared for a while, and I am very sorry, but health and responsibilities made it impossible not to. We have so many cats now. SEVEN! Thanks to neglectful neighbors who let their fertile cat kitten bomb us not once, but twice. Get your cats fixed people. They are each so very sweet and will get featured. 4 black cats and three tuxedos.  



I am back, I have big plans and a new Printify store front and I am planning to start doing videos. Halloween is not so far away and it is time I revived my presence and get spooky. Hold on to your broom handles people, it is about to get busy around here!
