Summary:

Beguiles with visions of demons, black magic, witchcraft and the abnormal. A carnival of subject matter ranges from mythical monsters, ghosts, black humor and lonely characters to gruesome scenes of death and destruction. Celebrates beauty in the macabre, revitalizing a long history of Romanticism--the artists in this collection employ unique ways to express the subject matter. Human nature and a critical look at society our common themes. And of course there is death--not necessarily in plain view, but ever looming.
