The Metropolitan Museum of Art's roof garden is perennially one of the most popular spots in New York City during the summer, in part because it's a lovely venue, but also because of its fantastic, often-immersive outdoor exhibits. This year should be no exception: For the 2016 season, the roof garden commission is British artist Cornelia Parker's "Transitional Object (PsychoBarn)," which is indeed a replica of the creepy home featured in Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 horror classic Psycho.

Parker says she was inspired not just by Hitchcock's iconic film, but also by the work of artist Edward Hopper, who was known for painting rural landscapes punctuated by the odd barn or rambling old house. In fact, the Bates home in Psycho was allegedly inspired by Hopper's painting House By the Railroad, and Parker's piece shares similar characteristics. It's covered in reclaimed wood, which comes from an actual barn; she's stated that she wanted to contrast the "wholesomeness" of that image with the creepiness of the Hitchcock film.

One thing is for sure: This is likely to be the biggest Instagram bait of the summer, with a subtitle (PsychoBarn) that's destined to be used thousands of times…so get to the exhibit before that happens. It opens tomorrow and will be on view through October 31 (appropriately enough).
