Nightmare Mecanique

Nikon D100

This mechanical arcade dummy was seen at the Musee Mecanique at Fisherman's Wharf.

It was already pretty scary looking, but I decided to make it even more nightmarish. :)

omg! Great job with the dramatic lighting ... in my head I hear that "wheeep! wheeep! wheeep!" music from the shower scene in Psycho - you really succeeded here!

Yes, this dummy was probably at Playland though I don't remember seeing it when I was there. Most of the mechanical arcade dummies in the Musee Mecanique are from Playland. When we were there recently, Laffing Sal was still terrifying little kids :).

Ok,this is Twilight Zone material, Warren. It's creepy. Uh, did it say anything to you by any chance when no one was looking? It's very creepy. It ranks right up there with clowns. The use of b&w give is an even, uh, better(??) effect.
