Where's the... it's either "The Human Chair" or "The Singing Chair" from the same set? Legit scares the crap out of me,

Wow. That is creepy. If I were a kid, I'd never be able to sleep after seeing my nightmares come to life...

Fascinating how we are all so different. For me as a kid who regularly had nightmares, I think this might have helped - images would have been externalised & not just in my head.
-
True perspective would certainly be a factor. Personally I can't think of anything I've dreamt, in a nightmare, that would be less scary in real life. But that's just me.

that last image is very weirdly haunting. not sure if it's the stones or the stereo horns. Lynchian.

@spacecow2455@rosspayton@KamenOtaku some decent fodder for a horror scenario involving cursed photos...

The last one looks like the inspiration for Boys of Silence from Bioshock Infinite.

“Ellen DeGeneres popping out of the roof of a house that stands on a dry riverbed” is a very specific kind of nightmare.

Yes, too creepy. I'd call it exploitation and if I were one of their parents I would not let my child anywhere near this guy. If they recreated their childhood nightmares as adults that would be another story.

Actually, it could be a way to face a nightmare and get rid of it. If i were a parent i'd spend more time worrying about why my kid had nightmares...
