Gabriela Ferrada, an artist who goes by the handle THORN, spent last summer decorating the walls Constitución with images or her favorite vampires. Located in Chillán, the capital of Chile, the neighborhood now features the likenesses of Gary Oldman as Dracula, Sharon Tate from The Fearless Vampire Killers, Kiefer Sutherland from The Lost Boys, Brad Pitt from Interview with the Vampire and, of course, Jonathan Frid as Barnabas Collins.
Ferrada has been doing multilayer stencil since 2010 and, if her handle and website address are any indication, she's also a horror fan. Ferrada's website address is www.thornindustries.org, the name of international conglometrate eventually inherited by Damien Thorn in The Omen series. Lucky for us she devoted a little time to documenting the creation of her murals and shared a variety of images on her social media outlets. She dedicated Barnabas Collins to her mother, because "he scares her."
