Zombified Muppets

These Zombie Sesame Street Paintings Will Make Your Kids Run for Cover

There's nothing like zombifying pop culture icons, and these zombie Sesame Street paintings are giving other aspiring zombifiers a run for their money.

These kooky undead creations are the work of Evan Cheng, who designed the brain-craving muppet series for the T-shirt company Mightyfine. Seen here are Bert, Ernie, Oscar, Big Bird, Elmo, Grover and, of course, the Count. These vibrant creations have such awesome expressions on their faces that I would be proud to wear these images on clothing any day. Also on the tees are hilarious parody texts such as "B is for Brains" and "Frenemies of the Human Race."

As stellar as these zombie Sesame Street paintings are, I'm still wondering why the Cookie Monster is absent, considering he's pretty much a zombie already, only with a penchant for cookies instead of brains.
