Decorate Your Tree With Horror Decor’s Horror Villain Ornaments
Christmas is much cooler when you treat it like Halloween.
The fine folks over at Horror Decor are devoted to all year round helping you decorate your home with the coolest, well, horror decor imaginable, and the company just put up for grabs their awesome holiday 2016 collection. In addition to candles and pillows, this year’s collection includes a slew of horror icon ornaments, but you’ve only got a limited time to grab them: they went on sale today and they’re going away until next year on November 25th.
Horror Decor’s 2016 ornaments, some of which I personally helped create, include Leatherface, Chop Top, Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Pennywise, Beetlejuice, and even characters like The Funhouse‘s Gunther and Baby Selwyn from Dead Alive. Brand new offerings, never previously made available, include NES versions of both Jason and Freddy, and Freddy variants that depict his looks in both the original Nightmare on Elm Street and New Nightmare.
Each ornament is selling for just $8, so stock up while you can.
Head over to Horror Decor to check out the full Holiday 2016 product line!

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
