Artist Draws Pokémon Characters As Monsters & The Results Will Send Chills Down Your Spine

Are You Ready For Some Nightmares?

Well, do i have the treat for you! I am sure everyone knows about Pokemon right now. (Who hasn’t bumped into a pole because of Pokemon Go?) Now you might have fond memories of Pokemon from your childhood.

David Szilagyi however, is here to turn them into nightmares. David was actually a concept artist for the video game industry. However, he quickly realized, that his heart lies elsewhere. Specifically, turning our beloved characters into nightmare fuel.

I love creating surreal nightmare fuel, and crafting worlds and stories based on them.

I was raised on Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark, Beksinski, H.R. Giger, Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, H.P. Lovecraft, Guillermo Del Toro, Pokemon, Zelda, Final Fantasy, Dead Space, F.E.A.R., Slender, Silent Hill, Akira, The Guyver, among many other wonderful classics.

I love the worlds and lore that these experiences provide me, and I’m here to give that experience back to the world, one horrific image at a time.
