And he is in good company, #RobertBloch, #Fritz_Leiber, #DavidHKeller, #ClarkAshtonSmith, and #HPLovecraft. Bonus : Part 3 of #HerbertWest_Reanimator.

~ face rising from fungus ~
Another Halloween composition inspired by the poetry of #HPLovecraft and #ClarkAshtonSmith. ** The face in the portrait is a distorted profile, depending on how your eyes adjust to the angle, it may appear more like a mound of fungus. 😂
