Halloween has returned, and with it, ghosts begin to stir within your gallery… ✨                This year, reawaken the gentle art-spirits of yore. Forgotten OCs, dusty sketches, and faded masterpieces linger among past works in your gallery. Restless with unspent creative energy, they softly whisper: “Remember me?” Now’s your chance to answer their call and breathe eerie new life into them. What might they become, if they could haunt you just a little longer? 🕯️ Summon your sketchbook spirits Dust off a forgotten piece from your gallery and give it new (after)life. Get creative to earn this year’s eerie-sistible spectral profile badge! How do I take part in this resurrection? Pick an old deviation from your gallery. This can be one of your first-ever sketches, a WIP, or just a piece that deserves another moment in the moonlight. Reimagine it in ghostly form. Eerie, spectral, glowy, surreal, glitchy… whatever your vision of its afterlife may be! 📌 Tip: Use DeviantArt Draw

Hello, Boils & Ghouls! It's your cold, I mean your old friend The Crypt Keeper! It's coming up on that time of year again, kiddies, & I'm as happy as a vampire in a fully stocked blood bank! That time of ghoulies & ghosties, witches & werewolves, aliens & abominations! Of course, I'm talkin' about Halloween! I already have my pumpkin tree & mistle-toe up...with an ACTUAL toe! A-HEE-HEE-HEE! Y'know, what I love about as much as a horrid horror story is a spaced-out sci-fi story! Which brings me to what this here little DreamUpZone challenge is about. My good friend sterlingsapphire was sort of stuck...no, not in a giant spider's web🕷️...but on an idea for a Group Halloween Challenge. So, I suggested to him why not combine Horror AND Sci-Fi; make it SPOOKY SCI-FI! Then, ask all of you devious Deviants out there what does "Spooky Sci-Fi" mean to YOU? Is it weirdo aliens? 👽Is it time traveling to an unknown future or a forgotten past? Is it a refrigerator that transforms & eats

Welcome to another Fan Art Friday! To celebrate this month of horror, we're delving into the fantastical, supernatural, and mysterious world of Gravity Falls. Released in 2012, Gravity Falls is an animated television series focused on comedy and mystery, created by Alex Hirsch. It follows the adventures of Dipper and Mabel Pines, twins forced by their parents to spend the summer with their great-uncle Stan, who lives in Gravity Falls, a mysterious town filled with paranormal incidents and supernatural creatures. The children help their uncle run the Mystery Shack, a tourist trap he runs, while they begin to uncover the town's secrets. Dipper finds a cryptic journal that offers insight into the town's mysteries, and the two siblings find themselves embroiled in endless supernatural and dangerous adventures. Over time, they also uncover secrets about their uncle Stan, who seems to know more than he lets on, and face a powerful enemy who can make their nightmares come
