Paul Acker has been described many times as the master of horror when it comes to tattooing. He specializes in realistic horror themed tattoos, and does an amazing job of it.He owns The Séance Tattoo Parlour in Bensalem, PA.

Paul has been tattooing since December of 2000. As a kid he loved Tales from the Crypt and fangoria, which developed into a love of horror as he grew up. When doing his horror themed work, he focuses on the lighting within the tattoo, much like an actual horror movie does, to give the piece depth and contrast. Here are some of my favorites of his.

Mad Max remake

Christian Bale’s American Psycho

Stephen King’s It

Michael Meyers and his home, from Halloween

Hannibal Lecter from Silence of the Lambs

Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th

Bloody wolf

Decaying zombie

Frankensteins monster looking as sad as ever

Jaws

Iconic Marilyn Manson

Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street

Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family

Angry little Gollum from Tolkien’s the Lord of the Rings

Paul Acker only does tattoos that he is interested in doing. Better make sure you want something cool so you can get a brilliant piece from him!
