ABOUT THIS DECK
Since time immemorial, humanity’s fear of the unknown has often been born from the imagination of "what cannot be seen." The Western world has given tangible form to this fear — werewolves howling on full-moon nights, vampires sleeping in ancient castles, demons disguised as humans...
They exist not merely to terrify, but as reflections of human nature.
These "monsters" slumbering in legends and art should not be forgotten in the past. We reshape them with delicate brushstrokes, bringing the legends back to life.
Tonight, all beings lurking in the dark shall gather for this feast.
Are you ready to face them head-on? Presenting, HORROR NIGHT Playing Cards...
Focusing on Western monster culture - presented in a Neo-classical gothic illustration style, drawing inspiration from age-old urban legends and mythological tales, while paying tribute to classic on-screen monster icons.
Special Deck
Limited to 999 with unique serial numbers. It is part of Artist Boxset - a Gift-Box (which can be transformed as a magnetic stand or a pumpkin altar) that contains two decks with an art book.
- Based on Western monster culture
- A showcase of artistic rendition
The Special deck presents three stages of creation - line art, refined drafts, and final colored artwork - paired with the artbook to highlight the creative process. The two extra cards with the Jokers show the process of creating the back design, from the geometric construction to final finished artwork. The rest of the cards shows a gradient transformation - from the lower corner to the upper corner, it shows the process from line art to the colored arts.
