Joshua Hoffine produces photography that will make you think twice before descending the dark stairs to your basement, or letting your bare foot stick out from beneath the covers in bed. His photography will, whether you like it or not, recall your childhood nightmares. As the father of three it's been my job to be a big ol' tough dad for over 18 years now. I'm supposed to grin benignly and explain to my kids that there is no such thing as the Boogeyman, there is no monster underneath the bed,
and there is nothing in your closet aside from dirty socks and Legos. Apparently Joshua has proven me wrong. Very, very wrong.
Tonight I'll be wearing adult-sized footie pajamas, sleeping with all the lights on, and will never ever again go downstairs in the middle of the night to investigate a creaky noise.
*shudder*
If you can view his work dispassionately, then you'll realize they are truly great pieces of art.
-- Thanks to Mr. Hoffine for providing permission for share a bit of his work with you here. Please do not hotlink the photographs. --

Wait a minute, somebody actually makes adult-sized footie pajamas? Is it pink and does it have bunny ears attached to the hoodie? I was just wondering because that could be a nightmare. Not that there's anything wrong with a man wearing pink.
Ok. I just looked at Joshua's Portfolio...
I think there is seriously something wrong with him.
Its all so freakin disturbing.
Usually odd things like this dont phase me, but for some reason these are just too intense...
He is a...different...person...
