Pony Mania is still galloping across the globe, and it was only a matter of time before horror-themed custom variants on the My Little Pony franchise began to surface.
One of the more creative horror spins on pony culture comes from artist Dianita Ceron, who strips down the Hasbro originals to the basics (“blank canvases”), then re-mods them with gruesome zombie features, as well as tattoos, piercings and assorted bling, to create “cute gore for the creepy collector.”
Ceron points out that she is an animal lover (much of her non-horror artwork reflects a love of horses) and that these grotesque creations are definitely portraying the ponies as zombies, “the result of an imaginary plague on an imaginary place.”
There are many examples on display at Dianita's Facebook page, and you can see what's currently in stock at her Etsy shop.
