Horror Movie Villains Styled as Tarot Cards, Halloween Shirt and Mug Cut File
This Horror Halloween Characters Tarot design is a single square illustration of horror movie villains drawn as tarot cards, made for shirts, mugs, tumblers, stickers and wall art. You get SVG, PNG, DXF, EPS and PDF files. The artwork is built in black and white with blood red accents, and each villain sits in its own tarot card frame labelled THE DREAMER, THE SLASHER, GHOST FACE, THE PUPPET, THE CLOWN and THE CAMPER. Look closely and you will find a Freddy-style glove with blades, a hockey-mask slasher holding a knife, a puppet with spiral eyes and a bow tie, a clown holding a red balloon, and a camper in a hockey mask with a machete. The Slasher and The Dreamer appear again in a cluster, with blood splatters, a crescent moon and mountain silhouettes filling the background. The high-contrast, woodcut-like linework suits Halloween decorating and horror fan gifts.
Design breakdown
The design is a square collage on a white background, cut in 3 layers using black, white and blood red. The black layer carries the tarot card frames, character outlines, lettering and mountain silhouettes, the white layer provides the inner highlights and the blood splatters, and the blood red layer is used for the accents. The six named cards are THE DREAMER, THE SLASHER, GHOST FACE, THE PUPPET, THE CLOWN and THE CAMPER, with THE SLASHER and THE DREAMER repeated in a cluster. Fine details such as the spiral eyes, the bow tie and the blade fingers on the glove are best cut at 4 inches or larger. The file contains 9 distinct designs in total, and the design is in the same preview sheet.
