To call it macabre would be an understatement due to its seriously [grotesque nature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deddy-bears). However, for some strange reason, a guy stretching his eye-lids and demons ripping open a person's mouth has a strange appeal most would find disturbing. Some of his other work features [horrifying embryos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiyuan-xu), monsters and other creatures that aren't for the faint of heart.
