Not since I watched 'The Ring' have I laid eyes on such creepy imagery. There’s just something about demon-like children that doesn’t sit well with me. The Sleeping Fables Collection features disturbing photgraphs taken in a faux-vintage sort of light.
Created by Selma Rehl, the Sleeping Fables Collection features photos of children done up to look as scary as humanly possible, coupled with landscape images that are reminiscent of 'Alice In Wonderland.' Good thing I came across these while it was still light out.
