<p>Whether you&rsquo;re haunted by a fear of ghosts, gripped by night terrors involving oversized insects, or find horror in more realistically pressing matters like nuclear meltdowns and the looming environmental apocalypse, there&rsquo;s something to be scared about among these extraordinarily creepy art installations.</p>
<h4>Monster House by Christine McConnell<br>
<a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/monster-house-1-960x574.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="first-image img-responsive" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/monster-house-1-960x574.jpg" alt="" width="960" height="574"></a></h4>

<p>Artist, photographer and baker <a href="https://www.instagram.com/christinehmcconnell/?hl=en">Christine McConnell</a>, who&rsquo;s well known on Instagram for her creepy culinary creations, decided to transform her parents&rsquo; house for Halloween sing materials like foam core insulation boards, lighting and a fog machine. The result, &lsquo;Monster House,&rsquo; is pretty incredible.</p>
<h4>Chiharu Shiota&rsquo;s Tangled Webs<br>

<p>Japanese-born, Berlin-based installation artist<a href="http://www.chiharu-shiota.com/en/"> Chiharu Shiota </a>stretches her web-like creations throughout gallery interiors and other structures, almost like a spider herself. The threads or hoses are woven into abstract networks and attached to objects in the room, like pianos and boats. In 2013, she completed a performance piece entitled &lsquo;Earth and Blood&rsquo; reflecting a traumatic personal history of cancer and loss.</p>
<h4>Horror Vacui by David Zink Yi</h4>

<p>A giant squid seems to have been unearthed fro the sea and left on a gallery floor to decompose in a puddle of putrid black liquid. This installation by <a href="https://midwayart.org/event/horror-vacui/">David Zink Yi</a>, entitled &lsquo;Horror Vacui,&rsquo; is made of ceramic coated with copper and lead, the liquid consisting of ink and corn syrup.</p>
<h4>Giant Ant Infestations by Rafael G&oacute;mezbarros</h4>

<p>If you&rsquo;re creeped out by insect swarms, you might not want to see any of <a href="https://www.gomezbarros.com/">Rafael G&oacute;mezbarros</a>&rsquo; incredible oversized ant installations in person. Each one measures 20 inches in length. In an interview with <a href="https://en.artmediaagency.com/85051/conquering-the-world-one-ant-at-a-time-interview-with-rafael-gomezbarros/">Art Media Agency</a>, G&oacute;mezbarros explained, &ldquo;Through the portrayal of this creature which&nbsp;generates so many positive processes in nature, I&nbsp;aim to create a reflection upon the reality in which we live, which&nbsp;is&nbsp;repeated throughout world&nbsp;history: the displacement of humanity and the resulting&nbsp;immigration, especially in the current era of globalisation. &nbsp;For me, immigration is often the&nbsp;result of the internal problems within a country. The immigrant can be&nbsp;represented by the ant, which in turn embodies duality: positive energy that leads it to construct and create elsewhere is juxtaposed by the notion of infestation.&rdquo;</p>
<h4>Ghosts in a Czech Church by Jakub Hadrava<br>

<p>After part of the roof of St. George&rsquo;s church in the Czech village of Lukova collapsed in the middle of a funeral service in 1968, locals believed the structure to be cursed, and left it to rot. Whether or not any real ghosts ever haunted its pews, it&rsquo;s now filled with seriously spooky specters in the form of sculptural installations by local artist <a href="https://weburbanist.com/2015/09/11/ghost-church-creepy-statues-invade-abandoned-czech-chapel/">Jakub Hadrava.</a></p>
