For ECU’s spectacularly scary centennial, we’re taking you on a terrifying trip through the petrifying past with a look at eerie artworks from the ghoulish grad books and startling student publications in the university’s enchanted archives!
If your blood wasn’t yet sufficiently curdled after yesterday’s edition of Eerie Artworks by ECU students, you’re in luck!
With hair-raising help from our costumed colleagues at ECU’s Library + Archives, we’ve scoured the university’s haunted history to bring you a spell-binding vision of unearthly artworks from the 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond!
A spine-chilling scream of thanks to our fang-tastic friends at the Library + Archives for their autumnal assistance, and a reminder that they are always available to help you with your next ravenous research project or skeletal search for inspiration!
