Dark Corner Books is a passion project that was started in 2014, meant to revel in all that is dark and creepy.
The Dark Corner Books Facebook page is dedicated to all creative outlets that explore horror such as literature, cinema, and illustration. The team released a third anthology of horror stories last year but we suggest you start with anthology number one.
Their latest illustrations show some of the creepier and lesser-known creatures from folklore, drawn specifically to gain entry to your nightmares. From the scary Wendigo to the freaky vampire-like Mananaggal from the Philippines – all these creatures can be turned into an illustrated mug or poster by visiting Society 6.
