Ah, horror movies; you either love ’em or you hate ’em! Those who love them usually have an interesting sense of adventure and aren’t afraid of much. People who watch horror flicks are usually just as interested in the special effects as they are the story lines. Sometimes, it’s even the special effects that make the movie. Oh, but the characters… The characters are usually what turns a typical horror movie into a classic horror movie. No one ever seems to forget the characters!

And, it’s the characters that are usually the subjects of the best horror movie tattoos!

Only true horror movie buffs would even consider getting inked with their favorite deranged characters. If you’re a hardcore horror fan, the though may have crossed your mind a time or too. Before you get inked, though, make sure you check out these awesome horror movie tattoos for a little inspiration!
