The Illusionator VideoArt “Ship of the Dead” haunted artwork features an old ship painting on actual canvas that suddenly comes to life with a bolt of lightning. The ship then sinks before your eyes while howling souls fly into the air and flames engulf the sinking vessel. The action comes to you from an LCD monitor installed behind the painting that includes built in speakers. The scene plays on a continuous loop thanks to a small, self-contained media playback unit that offers a brief pause between each simulation. All this comes together to serve as a cool Halloween decoration, conversation piece, or your worst nightmare if you suffer from aquaphobia.
