On Halloween 31/10/2026 Beav and a group of his close friends all gathered round the mics in his studio for a very special Halloween podcast episode. The premise of the podcast was each guest had to suggest anything from the art world that scares them. This could be anything from paintings, music, photography, film etc…. What they discovered, will make you feel an array of emotions. But beware some of the imagery may disturb you, some may even make you laugh. Most importantly if you’re into the dark and macabre, then your presence is welcome.
I dare you to click play…….and see if any of these paintings disturb you too……….Mwahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Happy Halloween Creepsters!
