Year-round, the inside of Karen and Matthew’s home is decked out in a style she calls Victorian goth. But, from August to November of every year, they turn their home into a Beetlejuice House, nicknamed “The Beetle House.”
Their dark living room — a style Karen refers to as "haunted brothel" — is decorated with black velvet curtains, a coffin coffee table and a red velvet couch. The walls are covered in spiders, bats and all sorts of creepy crawlers.
Here’s Karen sitting in the waiting room, the newest addition to the display.
Replicated props based on the movie.

Last AU WIP of the week!!
This is gonna be one of the most difficult frames to finish lmao
Also the quality is extra crusty but that's okay/silly
[More rambles undercut]
Long story short this thing has prespective and BGs since I barely do both and it's good to practice, but on the downside it's gonna be taking a long long time to do (tldr I re-sketched the panel to make linearting easier)
Finished 1/6 panels so far tho!!!
The others are simplier other than the first two so I should take as much!!

do you know any cool fact or info about Hylotrupes bajulus?
I'm afraid I've never read much about them, so nothing interesting to share beyond them being considered pests because they bore into and damage the timber used to make houses. But we can't blame them for that because they're too cute :)
We could admire one, though!
Precious :)

Newly finished gouache painting!
I just did a fun commission with a neat stump house and it put me in the mood to paint... more stump houses. Lots of little details in this one, so it took a long time! I'm just as upset as you are that I don't live here.
gouache, Sept 2023

Fun thing I learned today: there are stag beetles in Michigan! I knew they existed but somehow I never knew we had them here.
Unfun thing I learned today: there is a stag beetle in my kitchen sink! I don't know how the fuck that motherfucker got in here but this bitch is two inches long and now I have to burn my house down! Why the fuck is this a thing that has happened!! Motherfucker!!
