The Dark Lamp

I wanted to do a lighting test, so decided to use this monster of sorts.
A discarded desk lamp with a shattered bulb was possessed by a dark entity. Its humanoid body has skin of smooth, black metal and is filled with phosphorescent blood. Blackouts may occur as it feeds on electricity in the area. Its chilling scream can shatter glass.
Perhaps this lamp-demon and its creepy story would have been better to save until closer to Halloween, but Stares to Nowhere shuffled into play on my computer and brought it out early.


This creature was inspired by a desk lamp of mine that I used for a school project. At one point, it was the subject of a photo shoot. Some of the results remain among my favorite photos I've ever taken.
