Photographer Troy Paiva showcases these beautifully dismal stills of the Presidio Pet Cemetery in San Francisco that will evoke horror and awe to anyone who comes across them.
The eerie appearance of the photographs will surely remind you of that 1980s Stephen King-inspired movie of the same title. The cemetery was started in the 1950s and has since been closed down, but pet owners still frequent the burial grounds even after it closed down according to Paiva.
Pets become an extension of their owner; they become an integral part of ones life. While bewitching and slightly spooky, these photographs illustrate the lengths pet owners will go to pay tribute to their beloved animals.
