Why a Horror Tattoo? – Expressing Your Spooky Side
Halloween & Tattoos
During the month of Halloween there is a spike in spooky tattoos. From simple flash designs to full sleeves commemorating horror movies. But why? There are many reasons why someone chooses to get tattooed. The subject matter can often reflect that. Furthermore, there has been numerous research for the psyche behind getting tattoos. Overall, the primary motivation behind the subject matter of someone’s ink is significant personal meaning.
Halloween and tattoos have always had a healthy relationship. Because it evokes inner personalities and inspires artists. October is a month which allows everyone to feel their inner darkness free of judgement. Unlike other months, it brings together people who love the dark and spooky. Horror fans come together at events, like Spooky Empire, to express themselves. When at events like these, people can get flash designs and full sleeves. They can meet actors, and revel in horror fantasies. Because of this, people feel a sense of community and culture surrounding the spooky season.
But Why Do People get Spooky Horror Tattoos?
To many, their ink represents a personal meaning or reflection. For the most part, tattoos mark an experience or a struggle. But there are tattoo designs which act as an extension of who a person is. These means of expression can vary in subject matter. People who feel connections to the Halloween season and horror movies are no exception. These designs might scare some, and potentially give off a negative impression. But they are generally a reflection of an individual’s personality. Although, these scary tattoos could represent a significant moment in someone’s life. They could be a connection to a loved one – acting as a reminder of something they shared. It could simply just be their favorite movie! Maybe they just walked in and grabbed a flash design. Regardless, they are deeply personal to the wearer.
Whatever their reasons, we think spooky tattoos are awesome. Unquestionably, all tattoos act as a mode of expression. Whether your design represents your inner darkness or reflects a moment of significance in your life, nonetheless all tattoos are an individual taste. Undeniably, we love assisting with these projects. We encourage your creative side and artistic vision and are always happy to fulfil horror dreams.
