Spooky & The Strange Tales: Monster Inn

Once upon a time, in the heart of the kingdom of Fairy Tales, a king and a queen had the strangest of children: Spooky! The traditional-fairy tale tropes turn topsy-turvy in this lavishly illustrated storybook as Spooky explores her dark, enchanted world. And when her uncles the Three Little Pigs offer a trip to their London hotel, Spooky trades one improbable setting for another! Monster Inn shines a charming, childish light on contemporary goth culture for a rich and unique story that’s like nothing you've seen before.

Auteur

Carine-M and Élian Black’Mor are concept and graphic designers, authors and illustrators. This duo of artists works in total harmony and reveals an bountiful creative universe in the fields of the fantastical and weird.

Alternately conductor and instrumentalist, they are at the service of their creations. Their hybrid work blends traditional practice with digital tools. The graphic identity of each combines itself, while remaining visible and accessible.

Each artist is the author of their own universe: "The Black’Mor Chronicles" for Élian, where he recounts the spooky peregrinations of his avatar of paper, while "L’épouvantable encyclopédie des fantômes" opens for Carine-M a window on her poetic and surreal imagination. All these works are created by four hands. Their inspirations include the Victorian period and black Romanticism while also tapping into our contemporary time.
