Australian digital artist Wil Hughes is undeniably good at what he does, but he might’ve turned your favourite and most harmless pop culture characters into something made of nightmares – so we’re not too sure what we should feel about that. All seriousness aside, his incredible 3D work has given him a fan base online and an online shop to boot.

Get pillows, art prints, tote bags, phone cases, and more from the artist’s Society6 store here. Or if you’re someone who seeks adrenaline in the form of creepy pictures and artwork, then adorn your walls with Ronald McDonald’s psychopath twin made by Hughes for the ultimate heebie jeebies past midnight.
