The Castle of Horrors Illustration by HH Holmes

Castle of Horrors

If we have spent a while ago before the beauty of a series of cute characters from Squid & Pig studio for Star Wars, now we go to the other side more terrifying for an illustration that brings us passages full of pain as well as darkness.

With the next Scorsese film, "The Devil in the White City", in which Leonardo di Caprio will be the protagonist, this illustration emerges that brings us to a serial killer, HH Holmes. Also known as Dr. Henry Howard or simply "Dr. Holmes', he went on to confess to twenty-seven murders and fifty attempts. A few minutes of terror await us with this somewhat "macabre" illustration.

As in this life everything is day and night to take us before black and white, a few minutes where we can contemplate the castle of horrors that this illustration provides with a series of details to find in each of the rooms that make it up.

Nor am I going to go into the gruesome details of the life of this serial killer, for that there is a book with the same name as the movie, "The Devil in the White City." Surely for fans of films of this type, if Martin Scorsese is capable of doing a great job, we will see Di Caprio looking for that role that will give him that coveted Oscar for once of all.

The artist in charge of this work has created her own blog where you can get closer to the study and creative process based on actual documents from this serial killer's own castle. A magnificent opportunity to also find a series of pictures and jigsaw puzzles that you can finance in a crowdfunding campaign launched by the creator of this illustration.

The project on Kickstarter from this link and the blog where you will find this illustration and your work from this other.
