Rhapsodies

For today’s Halloween Sketch I drew… (I’m finding myself catching myself on the double meaning of this word this week. “I drew the card from the hat and then I drew what it told me to draw”) Ahem… I drew (and then drew, sorry!) Jiangshi (??) aka Chinese hopping vampires, or zombies.

Too me they generally come off more as zombies since in every movie I’ve seen them in they are being controlled by some sort of necromancer. When you first hear the word “hop” they sound extremely silly but in the right context, even in the incredibly silly Mr. Vampire, they’re as creepy as hell.
