Joshua Hoffine is a horror photographer who has recently been featured in both Rue Morgue magazine and Fangoria. He left a career as a wedding photographer to capture images illuminating the darker side of our psyche, exposing our childhood nightmares and fears.
Hoffline insists that the images be as real as possible, and that includes the children in the photographs. They're actually his real life daughters Anna (12), Shiva (10), Sade (5), and his main model Chloe (7).
The series, called After Dark, My Sweet, is still in progress and can be viewed at his website, where you can also purchase prints.

Last week we had soldiers and werewolves, this week we have cowboys and dinosaurs!
Tonight's feature is a classic dinosaur movie from 1969, with some great stop-motion special effects by the genius Ray Harryhausen. I remember loving this on TV when I was a kid.
The Valley of Gwangi was directed by Jim O'Connolly; the cast includes James Franciscus, Gila Golan, Richard Carlson, and Laurence Naismith.
Cowboy James Franciscus seeks fame and fortune by capturing an Allosaurus living in the Forbidden Valley and putting it in a Mexican circus. Guess what happens?
The Mysterious Stranger is an unfinished work, and the last novel attempted, by the American author Mark Twain. It was worked on periodically from roughly 1890 up until his death in 1910. The body of work is a serious social commentary by Twain addressing his ideas of the Moral Sense and the "damned human race".
Twain actually wrote multiple versions of this story, each unfinished and each involving the character of "Satan".
ANIMATED VERSION The Mysterious Stranger was adapted to a short scene in the 1985 claymation film The Adventures of Mark Twain, in which the children visit a planetoid and meet an angel named Satan. He claims to be incapable of performing an evil act as he does not understand the concept of wrongdoing. Satan builds a sandcastle and has the children make clay figures which he then brings to life. Two of the clay men bicker over ownership of a cow, and Satan kills them by mashing them with his palm. He then creates a storm and an earthquake to kill the remaining people and destroy the castle, to the horror of the watching children. Thereafter, the kids leave the planetoid as Satan lectures, "Life itself is only a vision, a dream. Nothing exists save empty space and you, and you are but a thought," ultimately disappearing with the planetoid, an illusion he created himself.
Due to the disturbing nature of this scene, it is edited out of the movie when aired on American television.
