Description On the first eve of All Hallows, drums roll and pipes sound as the Pagan god Baphomet calls upon the denizens of forest and peak.

This is my entry for the Dark Arts Asylum Sinister Halloween Sounds contest. I've been working on it every day for around 3 weeks, since I moved to Southampton. It's rare for me to feel so much admiration for one of my pieces so soon after I've 'completed' it, but this one is special to me. It represents my love of all things eerie, my love of Halloween, and my pagan roots. I hope you like it too.

Voting commences at midnight on 31st October and ends a week later here - Check out all the other awesome entries, then vote for mine!

Happy Halloween!

Thanks so much folks, it's wonderful to know that we share the same feeling I get from the piece. MS - I had originally drafted a plain enough horn, but I decided the god of Pagan lore needed a bit of extravagance Thanks to all for your beautiful words.

Holy crap...

I don't think I've ever experienced as creepy a feeling. That really just made my skin crawl. Congrats.
This is art, if I ever cared to define it.
You definitely know where you're coming from. Good luck to you in the contest, although I'm sure you won't need it.

Kepp it up. Please.

Cheers,
Jeff

An amazing drawing. A great atmosphere, and superb details. Great shading and textures.
What I personally would remove though are the things on the horn, whatever they are. Other than that I can't do much other than admire
