The Terrible Dream Eater

An original illustration by David White

The Terrible Dream Eater by David White plunges viewers into the unsettling territory between sleep and nightmare. A monstrous, many-eyed figure looms over a sleeping man, surrounded by bats, shadowy forms, distorted faces, and fragmented writing. The dense composition transforms nighttime fear into something tangible, capturing the feeling of being trapped inside a dream that refuses to release you.

    Home in the Hollow

    October in Sleepy Hollow isn’t a costume you put on. It’s home. The fog comes off the Hudson, the pumpkins glow along the trail, and the legend everyone else visits for a weekend is just… where I live. I wrote this for the village that taught me darkness doesn’t have to be something you run…
