Original post here. This image was researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Δ commission.” The research was originally published at Hedonix as “Δ 003 – Mondo Bride.” Here is what Bacchus found.

According to this article at Entertainment Weekly, the artwork above is a newly-commissioned 2014 poster for the famous 1935 horror film The Bride Of Frankenstein. The poster was commissioned by Mondo (which is the merchandise arm of the acclaimed regional art-movie theater chain Alamo Drafthouse) in honor of MondoCon, which seems to have been a gathering of horror artists and fans that took place in September 2014.

The poster was commissioned from artist Mike Mignola, a comic book artist perhaps most famous for Hellboy and related projects. There’s a considerable gallery of his work visible on the artist’s website.
