Do you love horror movies? Are you a fan of the macabre and the mysterious? Well, get ready to be fascinated by the dark and twisted world of horror tattoos!

“My tattoos look quite sinister and scary, but when you actually get to know me, I have a completely different personality to the imagery reflected in my tattoos.”

Do you love horror movies? Are you a fan of the macabre and the mysterious? Well, get ready to be fascinated by the dark and twisted world of horror tattoos!

Welcome to a spine-tingling conversation with Scott Michel from Guernsey, Channel Islands, UK!

This Halloween season, we wanted to celebrate the artistry and creativity of horror tattoos. They embody the eerie, macabre essence of the season, allowing individuals to display their love for horror in a unique and personal way.

A decorator, musician, actor, and podcast host, Scott’s love for horror shines through in his dark and captivating tattoo art.

His ink canvas includes: The Joker, Carnage from Spider Man, Twisty the Clown from American Horror Story, Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, David from The Lost Boys, Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher series, and Sam from one of Scott’s favorite horror films called Trick or Treat.

You’ll also find several heavy metal band tattoos featured in Scott’s body art collection, including Breaking Benjamin, A Perfect Circle, and Famous Last Words.

For those who appreciate the art of horror tattoos, you know it's more than just getting inked; it's a way to connect with a community of horror enthusiasts, to showcase fandom, and to wear favorite scares proudly.

This episode will INKspire you for a horror tattoo!
