EVERYDAY HORRORS
You recognize their faces. Their name might dance on the tip of your tongue, but you definitely recognize their faces. All of us have some experience with them: in-person, television, the movie screen. They are fixtures in pop culture. Although their extra-curricular activities are generally frowned upon by society (serial murder, torture, terrorism), they have managed to win the hearts of millions of fans globally. Ironically it seems like they can truly “do no harm” to their reputation, navigating the press and media unscathed and forever glorified.

But...what goes on during “non-business hours” for these folks. When they aren’t hanging co-eds from meat-hooks in their kitchen or making human kebobs with teenage camp counselors, where are they? What are they doing?

Follow Leatherface, Freddy, Jason, Ghostface and Michael around the streets of NYC in this October-inspired photo series. Created by Brooklyn, NY-based photographer, Jason Shaltz, take a behind-the-scenes look at iconic fictional characters living “everyday” big-city life. See how they travel, relax, exercise, and generally blow off steam. #EverydayHorrors provides humorous contrast between subject and environment, while simultaneously exhibiting New Yorkers’ propensity to tunnel-vision syndrome: completely uninterested in their surroundings.
