Ive read that his art was his expression of nihilism and destruction that he witnessed during the WW2. He was 10 when it started. Also, you can find in many of his paintings, there are crowds of people reminiscent of the concentration camps victims. One way or another, those circumstances influenced him to become the artist unlike any other. Maybe only Giger, but thats more biomachinery, whereas Beksinski is more organic in general. He is called a horror painter, a nightmare painter, well quite fitting both.
Ok now to some lighter stuff, cause Beksinski can really give you nightmares with his unsettling visions.
Now, about that spooky villain, how about Victor, from the Underworld.. ?saga? i suppose:
Good choices, but you just opened up Pandora's box, because now it's time for me to be spooky.
Soon you will regret that you've done this.
The album cover artwork alone is probably going to violate the TOS, which is unsurprising, especially for a gore metal band like Exhumed:

EDIT: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, I also forgot to post this one, it's not actually death metal, in fact it's the cheesiest crap on Earth, but it would be heresy not to share it here on Spooktober.
From the comments section:
"This is the original of the africans coffin dancing meme \m/"
"he is like the love child of Ozzy and meatloaf"
"He's 19 years old in this song, but sounds like He's 40"
"The dance choreography puts 'Thriller' to shame doesn't it."

I knew I was missing something in this thread. Bewitched by Candlemass is an absolute must for Spooktober. Thanks Roma. Everyone knows that YT comments hold universal truths.
My cow just grew a skull patch after that list of songs.
Hostem repellas aeternus
Pacemque dones et protinus
Ductore sic de praevio
Vitemus omne noxium

Hostem repellas aeternus
Pacemque dones et protinus
Ductore sic de praevio
Vitemus omne noxium
-
A sream deep in the night
As the firstborn awakes with the sign
A little dreamer... but are dreams always to define?
-
"Do not fear, my son! Awake the dragon inside
For he may guide you, being the worlds hidden eye
Through a dark time, when mankind is bleeding within
Oh little dreamer..."

Analyzing the midnight sky
And in the early morninglight
He just feels the warming heart
Beating in his head
-
To declare the reason why
Should I survive this sadness
"God reality back in my mind" - beating in his head
-
It's a very dark night
Nobody outside
Silence wraps up the land as suddenly:
Hoof beats destroy all sleep
-
And a wooden coach loaded with innocent ones
Accused and sentenced, their end has begun
And their eyes can't cover their fear... can't cover their fear
-
And he thinks he must be dreaming
Lifts up his head, sees the sky is gleaming
Heaven burns as red as blood
-
And all they have caught, they won't return
The sky reflects, from superstition they burn
When will they ever learn... They never return!
-
Ein drohendes Pochen in tiefschwarzer Nacht
In Tr'umen geseh'n und nun wahrgemacht
Die Diener der Kirche sind hier, sie zu holen
"Brennen sollst du mein Kind! - Der Herr hat's befohlen!"
-
Do not fear my son! Awake the dragon inside
For he may guide you, being the worlds hidden eye
-
Als am Pfahl sie brennt, nun schwarz ist ihr rotes Haar
Niemand mehr zweifelt, daß des Teufel's Weib sie war
Geschlagen, getreten, bespuckt und belacht
Die Flammen dem Leiden ein Ende gemacht
-
A scream deep in the night
As the firstborn awakes with the sign
A little dreamer... but are dreams always to define?
-
Die Flammen dem Leiden ein Ende gemacht
Die Flammen dem Leiden ein Ende gemacht
Ein Ende gemacht
Und wieder pocht es in tiefschwarzer Nacht...

Cause tomorrow is a brand-new day
And tomorrow you'll be on your way
Don't give a damn about what other people say
Because tomorrow is a brand-new day
Excellent submissions! I cried for the pumpkin. Those sick bastards and their twisted games. Damn those tiny demons! They will get what's coming to them when adulthood hits them. Thank you for your contribution to Spooktober. Very spooky indeed.
Army of Darkness, best horror/comic movie ever, when there wasn't CGI yet and special effect were still a form of art
However, I was looking for its wiki page when I just found out that they are making a movie called Army of the Dead, and that Bautista will be the main character... damn that's spooky (lol many of you are probably too young to know, but when the good Dave started his WWE career some 20 years ago, he wasn't famous at all for his dialectic skills )
