You'll notice on here—or maybe you don't—that I try to create a visual comparison of film and art between posts. The costumed ghost here from Spooks Run Wild (1941) resembles the art of Mike Mignola from the previous post.

Art by Mike Mingnola. Watercolours on an illustration board. Mike Mignola

One of my personal favorite artists. When I had a concussion 20 years ago, I couldn't really listen to music, watch TV, be on the computer, or read much due to light sensitivity. I mostly stayed in my bedroom for a month with the curtains drawn and read the complete Hellboy graphic novel series.

Follow me into Spooky Season

The Mask (1961) Canada's first Horror film and 3D film.

The story concerns a psychiatrist, Dr. Allen Barnes, who obtains a mysterious ancient Aztec mask. Whenever he puts on the mask, he experiences dream-like hallucinations that become increasingly disturbing and violent.

Honestly the most uniquely unsettling and nightmarish experiences in early 1960s horror films rivaled by none. Has my favorite visuals in black and white horror and just an underrated gem.

Probably still the best 3D movie ever made in cinema

Ghost train and dark carnival art by Michael brack Michaël Brack

Michaël Brack works evoke strange atmospheres and places, winding passages, long corridors, and stairs. The French painter and draftsman also delves into themes of emptiness and solitude in his compositions. Brack often takes pictures in the street or in other locales as a starting point, then lets himself be guided by the process of finding a strong image with as few elements as possible. He creates using oils, inks, and charcoal.
