Photographer Dad Creates Horror Photos Together With His Daughters

ADVERTISEMENT

There are many joys to being a parent, but none quite as much as being able to use your little kids to recreate gruesome and surreal scenarios that look like the stuff of nightmares. Take a look at these cool photos to see what we mean, but before you start worrying, rest assured that these kids are more than happy to feature in their dad’s creepy children photography!

Based in Kansas City, Missouri, Hoffine has spent the past decade turning nightmares into reality. Using cameras, props, and a twisted sense of imagination, the photographer also uses his daughters as models in his macabre and scary photos. His most well-known photo series, called ‘After Dark My Sweet’, focuses on the sorts of nightmares and horror characters we’ve all feared as children, and if you’d like to own your own collection of his creative photography then you can find his book on Kickstarter. Buy it if you dare…

More info: Joshua Hoffine | Kickstarter | Facebook | Twitter (h/t: didyouknow?, Huffpost)

Joshua Hoffine is a photographer who likes spending time with his daughters

But as you can see, combining his work and his family leads to very interesting results!

He gets his daughters to pose for his nightmarish photoshoots

But even though they look terrified, the kids can’t get enough of it

“They loved it,” said Hoffine. “It was like a giant game of dress-up for them”

“They also knew we were making a scary picture — and loved the idea of scaring the audience as much as I did.”

For the rest of us however, Hoffine’s pictures are downright scary!

His most well-known series is called ‘After Dark My Sweet’

The series is themed around the nightmares we have as children

And as you can see from these pictures, they certainly are nightmarish!

There sure are a lot of perverts in these comments. Seriously, who looks at a little girl in underwear and starts thinking about sexual stuff? A pedo, that's who. You all should go see a therapist or something.

I was raised by a horror fan. I'm a horror fan. I raised my kids to be horror fans. As long as the kids are having fun (not forced, not scared), it's all good. I realize a lot of people think these are disturbing photos but I think they are actually a cool way for a horror fan family to spend bonding time together. Awesome, fun photo shoot!

Smart move! Being that his children were around for the entire make up and set dressing process, they know it's all pretend and saw the process from start to finish. These kids will never be afraid of a horror movie cause they know how its all achieved. For anyone saying its too much for the kiddos, seems like you're just projecting your own fears and assumptions.

I usually had nightmares like that. Where I think I wake up, and go try and talk to my mum to feel better, only to have her turn around with bugs in her face, or somehow her head is now a wolf face.

These are absolutely awesome and creative. I think that a dad using his children for something like this probably also reinforced the fact that "monsters" aren't real. The one with the monster arms coming out from under the bed.... That was soooo me as a child. I was terrified something was going to grab my foot if I stepped off the bed at night. Lol!

(Big Breath) I read almost all the comments about the art, and as a fellow artist and drop dead horror buff myself, I apologize on behalf of, well, all the don't get what you're trying to convey. I get it. And it's brilliant. And to include your children in your work is not only clever, it's a bonding time you will always be able to share and keep in memory form in this book. The images you chose to display were brilliant and chilling. You didn't go right for the typical 'scary' or what everyone expects when you turn a corner, open a door, or *gasp* look under a bed. I have to give you a million kudos because you made me, a very seasoned horror veteran, get the 'heebie-geebies on the: "Hey Mom, I'm coming into your room wondering if you could get me a glass of milk...AND HALF YOUR FACE IS GONE WITH C**K ROACHES COMING OUT OF IT! MOM? MOMMMM? DOES THIS MEAN I HAVE TO GET IT MYSELF?" That was such a great thrill! I felt like I was at the top of a roller coaster about to go down! Thanks!

I don't know if the photographer also used photoshop to create some of the scenes... but I find it quite disturbing to take pictures of my little daughter lying next to a "dead woman" in a bed... MY children would certainly have nightmares after shooting like that. Thats why I guess children shouldn't watch horror movies either. Whats the difference?! They see blood, dead people, monsters... ?!

Love this ... if I had the talent of photo-editing, I would so do this and my daughters would be so on board as they both have been indoctrinated into horror movies ... it wouldn't scare them one bit because I've taught them the difference between fantasy and reality and the purpose of horror in cinema and literature ... it hasn't made them violent or traumatized, but getting exposed to horror isn't for everybody ...

The girl opens the fridge and there is a human head and a faceless creature behind the opened door. Seriously f****d up. Even though she knows it's a just a made up scene, at her age (she looks like 6-7 years old) she leaves in a world of wonders and magic. No matter how much "fun" they might had, they could come back as nightmares. Next time she opens the fridge alone in the kitchen she might ask herself, "what if there is a head in there, or a hand" or "if I shut the fridge door, will I see a creature ready to grab me?" No, it's not way off. It's real. Children that age should not be exposed to this macabre shots. Sitting in bed with her dead mother, cockroaches coming out of her mouth. Not cool at all.

Whatever the father thought...I still say it is unwise to subject little children to such kind of activity-no matter how sincere and innocent it might look....such activity can have a prolong trauma and even can instill fear in the subconscious mind of the innocent children - as word says 'whatever you sow is what you are going to reap'..so, dad I hope you would be wiser in the future....

A lot of people just made the point, so I don't want to repeat the same things, let me just say that I don't like this pictures at all. I hope this father will use more empathy with his children (not his inner chid, that like horror etc) in the future and don't use them for something that probably he like more than them (if also they find it funny now, it's probably because they want to play with him, not for the disturbing stuff itself). P.s. I like a good horror movie, but I'm a grown woman.

I agree with many people on here about the closet monster photo, the wolf photo and the gas mask one; Making the kid wear only underwear is disturbing, though one has to look at what is trying to be portrayed in the picture, it can also be done with clothes. When someone (Mostly adults) have a nightmare where they are naked, it is about being vulnerable in a situation, and kids are very vulnerable. Still, I stand with the suggestion of clothes next time.

This man needs to find another outlet for his creativity that does not involve his kids. I will not deny that he is talented, however, involving kids in the making of such pictures can be traumatic. And if anybody heard of the law of attraction, such pictures can be an invite for a disaster. I hope I am wrong. All the best.

No. This will only create a fascination with the occult and not to mention some have a partially nude child in it. They are violent and inappropriate.

this is just sick and irresponsible. children need love and positive things, they need to learn to communicate, to discover the beauty of nature and life. this is just plain opposite of what a child needs to be in touch with. people completely forgot what a child is, how sensible, fragile is their mind and heart. you should be ashamed of these pictures and even more of the fact you're making a show out of it. sick and irresponsible.

I don't ever remember having nightmares quite like these. Yes the clowns, monsters in the closet under the bed etc. these are all common childhood fears......But these photos add a darkness to it that can only come from a far from innocent, grown up twisted mind.

these people don't have enough brains to make the difference between an adult and a kid. maybe because they themselves didn't grew up to learn the difference. they really think that a little child can take enough distance from all this "horror fan" sick hobby and find "horror" "fun" and "enjoyable" like say going on a bike ride or playing with a soccer ball. they just don't get it. might as well buy them a beer or take them to a porn movie. what's the difference? why offer them "horror" as fun and not "alcohol" or "porn"? why stop there when you could take them wayyyyy much further?...

Whatever the father thought...I still say it is unwise to subject little children to such kind of activity-no matter how sincere and innocent it might look....such activity can have a prolong trauma and even can instill fear in the subconscious mind of the innocent children - as word says 'whatever you sow is what you are going to reap'..so, dad I hope you would be wiser in the future....

A lot of people just made the point, so I don't want to repeat the same things, let me just say that I don't like this pictures at all. I hope this father will use more empathy with his children (not his inner chid, that like horror etc) in the future and don't use them for something that probably he like more than them (if also they find it funny now, it's probably because they want to play with him, not for the disturbing stuff itself). P.s. I like a good horror movie, but I'm a grown woman.

Any image that upsets the soul even for an instant has been inspired by the darkest parts of a monstrous mind.

It's wrong from the beginning! I would never expose my children to such things as this!

I agree with many people on here about the closet monster photo, the wolf photo and the gas mask one; Making the kid wear only underwear is disturbing, though one has to look at what is trying to be portrayed in the picture, it can also be done with clothes. When someone (Mostly adults) have a nightmare where they are naked, it is about being vulnerable in a situation, and kids are very vulnerable. Still, I stand with the suggestion of clothes next time.

This man needs to find another outlet for his creativity that does not involve his kids. I will not deny that he is talented, however, involving kids in the making of such pictures can be traumatic. And if anybody heard of the law of attraction, such pictures can be an invite for a disaster. I hope I am wrong. All the best.

No. This will only create a fascination with the occult and not to mention some have a partially nude child in it. They are violent and inappropriate.

Afraid I find a number of these images pander to paedophiles. Not appropriate for general publication.

I'm sorry but I don't think this guy should be a parent... Kids shouldn't be exposed to something so disturbing...

this is just sick and irresponsible. children need love and positive things, they need to learn to communicate, to discover the beauty of nature and life. this is just plain opposite of what a child needs to be in touch with. people completely forgot what a child is, how sensible, fragile is their mind and heart. you should be ashamed of these pictures and even more of the fact you're making a show out of it. sick and irresponsible.

Lol, pull the stick out of your butt and calm the Hell down, kids can deal with a lot more than you give them credit for.

I don't ever remember having nightmares quite like these. Yes the clowns, monsters in the closet under the bed etc. these are all common childhood fears......But these photos add a darkness to it that can only come from a far from innocent, grown up twisted mind.

Totally unacceptable Terrifying for children to look at ( even if they know it is not real) Inappropriate, foolish and does he even know what sort of people are going to be looking at his daughters half dressed, he is putting his daughters at risk.

How does a parent bring a child to feel comfortable doing theses kinds of pictures? And why? Horror is just that: horror!

these people don't have enough brains to make the difference between an adult and a kid. maybe because they themselves didn't grew up to learn the difference. they really think that a little child can take enough distance from all this "horror fan" sick hobby and find "horror" "fun" and "enjoyable" like say going on a bike ride or playing with a soccer ball. they just don't get it. might as well buy them a beer or take them to a porn movie. what's the difference? why offer them "horror" as fun and not "alcohol" or "porn"? why stop there when you could take them wayyyyy much further?...

I think any father that takes pictures with his daughter almost nude is sick. Way to go dad, you also made sure to see though her nightgown
