It’s been a little while since I’ve done anything with GeGeGe no Kitarō, and I thought there was a little potential here. Even though he’s not overtly inhuman, I do think Kitarō would feel more comfortable living where the Halloween and similar characters live in the Studio. I don’t remember if I’ve talked about the haunted castle publicly before, but Kitarō and anyone else who’d feel more comfortable there have their own spooky home in the Studio. I wanted to show Kitarō getting along with someone else who lives there, and decided to go with Silas since there’s been some demand.
I’m hoping to do a couple little extra Halloween pictures for October this year, and this is one of them. This crossover is sort of like a follow-up to a Dare Silas and Eren appeared in last year, but this time in more like a partner-swap situation.
So, I was hesitant to do this Dare for two reasons. One is that I just drew Silas a few days ago for an Ask. Another is that I don’t typically like doing holiday-based Asks or Dares ’cause, while this post is going out to my Subscribers on Halloween, it’ll be February by the time it goes public. Regardless, I did go ahead and decide to do this one, and I hope those of you seeing this post in February can forgive the out-of-season spookiness.
So this Ask is kind of a strange one, isn’t it? It’s not really a proper question Silas can answer, but at the same time I thought it’d be funny to see his response. I’ve only seen a couple clips from the videos being referred to here, so I don’t know too much about them, but I think someone with a pumpkin head might see some of them as pretty graphic and disturbing. The idea of this massive Halloween monster being creeped out by random tame gay fetish porn is really funny to me, so I decided to go ahead and document it. Also, this allows Silas to give a better view of himself than he might’ve had in his debut pic, so now both he and Ember have gotten simple little follow-ups from that pic.
Like every year, I wanted to add a new monster type to my Spookyverse cast of original characters. I’m running a bit low on ideas for characters, but one monster I’ve never done is a pumpkin/Jack-O-Lantern type creature. There’s a few different ways to do this type of monster, but I went with a design I thought could be fun and sexy. Hopefully everyone agrees. So, let me introduce Ember and Silas Holloway!
Also, in the spirit of things, I posted a spooky new AI-assisted fanfic over in the literature section: https://nearhentai.com/literature/in-the-clutches-of-the-ghost-witch/
