Welcome back horror friends! Today is our last week with featured artist, John E. Richards. It was an absolute pleasure hosting his work here for the month of January, and I feel like it started off the year with a real BANG! If you would like to learn some more about our artistic benefactor there’s an incredible interview with him on Horror Addicts that you should check out: horroraddicts.wordpress.com.

Where I know he's looking to be fed
My little demon, attic head.
