Ah, Good Old Fashioned Nightmare Fuel

So, I’m in a used bookstore today, waiting for my sister to obsessively finish hunting for rare young adult novels (we have weird hobbies in my family). I wander into the fantasy section, look up, and see a book cover that disturbed the ever-living SHIT out of me. Really, they couldn’t have made this cover more ugly or upsetting if they tried.

So of course, I had to shell out the $2.50 and scan it in for y’all to see:





It’s a book of short stories. The title story is about a (non-centaur) guy who is called “Three Legged Stallion”. Contrary to the picture, this is not because he walks with a cane.

For the love of God, if you're going to draw a centaur, give it front legs! Damn, that's erie. The thing that freaks me out the most, though? The guy kinda looks like Jeeves, doesn’t he?

See, that's how I felt about it. I saw the book, then actually took a step away from the shelf.

You got me on Random Post? That's awesome. Though I guess it sucks for you, since you were instantly assaulted with the picture of an amputated centaur.
