Halloween 13: Boogieman

Published:

Description

Just for fun I thought I'd draw a classic Halloween monster each day until Halloween. Today it's the Boogieman, a parasitoid that manifests within a Sandman (obviously there are multiples of both) and and literally vomits nightmares. The Boogieman memorizes its host's nightly route while gestating so that, when fully grown, it immediately has a whole list of victims to inflict nightmares upon. These nightmares in turn create the Boogieman's true source of food: fear.

The Sandmen are fully aware of this disastrous blight and do their best to keep in it check, but they are unable to find out just where Boogiemen even come from. No "Boogiemother" has yet been found, leading some Sandmen to believe Boogiemen may be a dark part of themselves...

_______________________
You may have noticed the Boogieman bears some similarity to the moose (the long skinny arms, the largeish nose, the dewlap, and of course the antlers). That's because I had a nightmare involving a moose I thought was dead back when I was young and just facing the reality of death (via roadkill), and so the moose has become something of a personal symbol of abstract terror, my "boogieman".
