Also MArylin MAnson paintings are good examples of horror art, check them out here. I particulary like the video for The Beutiful People, I cant remember the name of the woman who directed it , but her art and visual aesthetic are awsome/

Marlyin manson is hardly a horror artist

His style of painting is very dark and gothic ,inspired by subjects such as death, decomposition ,lonliness , the darker side of life etc and the inspirations, themes, motifs and ideas come from the same place as alot of the best horror films. From ideas of universal and existential fear.
