The reason I made the
Grave Icons category was so there would be a place for horror icons that aren't movie/TV characters. Generally this would include people like authors or directors who are mostly known as themselves. Think Alfred Hitchcock or Stephen King, for example.
They don't have to be deceased, just a recognizable person associated with horror in some form.
Grave meaning
grim or
solemn. But maybe a phrase like "Fright Icons" would be more fitting, and less associated with death? Hmm.
Of course, this category can include actors out of character, such as the
Vincent Price we have in that section currently. So for Christopher Lee, I could do a portrait of just the man himself. Or one of his movie characters, which would go under Movie Monsters. Even before his passing, I'd say that his Dracula role has gotten the most requests.
