American Horror Gothic

So there's one more crazy halloweenish and famous art inspired illustration. This time it is Grant Woods »American Gothic«. I have always been scared of the original artwork: the serious, strict and even kind of angry couple gazing into the camera. I had the idea to convert the painting to a fully horrific illustration. The man was holding a pitchfork in his hands, which had to be replaced with something scarier. The house in the background is inspired by Tim Burton. I'm planning to do a Tim Burton inspired illustration of the famous angels from "Raphael's »Sistine Madonna«. Hope you are not too scared. There is someone else on the image beside the couple. What is it? You may have to zoom in.
