10 Spooky Pumpkins

Over the past 13 years, Gris Grimly has cultivated a reputation as one of his generation's most likable purveyors of sinister art. As an author and illustrator of creepy kids books, a fiendish fine artist, an alternative apparel designer, and a cult filmmaker, Grimly has built a loyal following of adult and young adult fans. And while those fans may be very familiar with his multi-faceted talents, they have never had an opportunity to see his most personal and private sketches... until now. In Grimly's own words, "Atrum Secretum is the first ever collection of my most demented, explicit and insane ideas that I've kept confined in sketchbooks for the past 13 years. These are very personal and vulnerable scribbles, but I feel that it is time, and that I am ready, to release these dark secrets to the public."

Atrum Secretum: 13 Years of Hidden Truths

Gris Grimly presents a third collection of reimagined classic children's rhymes combining macabre humor with masterful illustrations. Be prepared to view Wee Willie Winkle, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Crooked Man, Mary and her little lamb, and Little Boy Blue in a new light... a murky, sinister light.
