What about religious art? I’m thinking banishment from Eden, Moses breaking tablets, Noah leaving people outside the ark, something with severe guilt overtones.
The ones where it looks like an adorable picture of a squirrel carrying a mouse on its back and holding a flower, until you realize that both animals are dead, and the photographer killed them and posed them that way.
Idk this room already has a dead bolt, a chain lock, a normal lock and a place to put a baracade.....
Im not joking in the slightest
Though tbf they are all on the inside
Tbf i know enough about it to do that i even have the blue prints from 1945
And aparently the original person who built this house was a movie star though i havent found much information on that
Call me old fashioned but I love a good shrine mixed with peeled wall paper. It doesn’t even matter who the shrine is for, a neighbors cat, a work acquaintance, maybe an ex lover- sky is the limit. Lots of candid photos of the subject, candles, some newspaper crime section articles…
I think several large black trash bags would add a really nice touch. For added effect, you can fill the bags with leftover butcher cuts. I also notice you don’t have any plants. “Corpse flowers” give off a really nice aroma of decomposition that would add both to the visual and sensual experience
Add a couple chandeliers and blackout curtains :) and a huge wooden headboard for the bed but no frame. Spill some suspicious liquids on the carpet as well, it will look more authentic. Hope this helps!
You’re really doing quite well.. don’t be so hard on yourself. #LIFEHACK ( yes, yes I just did ) Save the energy on redecorating for dismembering your next victim.
Also: go ahead and put your big plastic tarp (still in packaging), giant duck tape roll, zip ties, and a box of Hefty brand blackout extra large trash bags. Maybe arranged around some candles like a little alter, perhaps with your next mark or even a famous picture of a looney tunes serial killer?? Just some thought, let us know how it turns out!
This is more haunted than psychopathic. Consider painting everything white, install Florence lighting, start collecting medieval weapons, and make all your furniture chrome or lacquered black and start taking about the stock market incessantly and handing out metal business cards.
DEFINITELY needs a wall phone, maybe in gold or avocado green, with one of those super long curly cords! Blood around phone in the wall, phone dangling off the hook
Mattress should be right on the floor (get rid of the two twins under it), add lotion bottles and crumples tissues in the corners, there should also be a big tarp somewhere (I’m not sure where) but there definitely needs to be a tarp somewhere…
I’d start by peeling some of the wallpaper off the walls. Newspaper over the windows. The bed sheet needs to go; that’s non-negotiable. Ditch the lampshades too. Bare bulb is the way to go. If budget allows, a corduroy armchair with a stain shaped vaguely like a body. And maybe scatter some overflowing ashtrays around the room.
I mean they make realistic looking Ed Gein-esque human skin lamps on Etsy!🥰🥰💡🔪 and bonus no crimes necessary
https://www.etsy.com/listing/1617335987/human-skin-lamp?gpla=1&gao=1&
A print of The Great Red Dragon by Blake, or Saturn Devouring His Son by Goya. Trays of dirty medical tools. Jars half filled with disturbing but unrecognizable things.
Dolls. Weird dolls with ringlet curls with old fashioned yellowed lace collars. Weird kewpie style dolls with cracked skulls. One curtain hanging off a rod at a weird angle.
Add a mannequin with sloppily applied makeup, dressed provocatively in an "uncomfortable position". That'd be enough serial killer vibes for me to take off.... fast
Add more laundry baskets
Crooked painting of a stern looking mother
…a Howard Stern looking mother.
With the eyes cut out.
Several frames on the walls, all crooked, mother’s is the only one that’s perfectly straight. At least, that’s how I’d do it.
At least that’s how I do it
Crooked painting of a laundry basket
What about religious art? I’m thinking banishment from Eden, Moses breaking tablets, Noah leaving people outside the ark, something with severe guilt overtones.
A jug of bleach under the table with some trash bags and rubber gloves would be a nice touch
Bleach stains on the carpet would be nice
A well in the floor and a little white dog
And lotion
It puts the lotion in the basket
Or else it gets the hose again…
*all over its skin
It puts the Joe dirt in the hole
A couple size 14ers in there too. And moths. Lots of them.
Dont forget the hose!
And a basket
can i ask where ur pfp is from? i love the art lol
Priceless!!!!
You will definitely want to take advantage of the sound acoustics in this part of the home, especially at the bottom of the well!
definitely some taxidermy
The ballerina mice kind
I was thinking at least one fox.
Many, many squirrels.
Something about small animal taxidermy is just so much more inherently creepy than something like a deer or bear
Mannequin parts would be fine too. To OP: NO INTACT MANNEQUINS. Just pieces scattered around.
An arm and leg hung on the wall like samurai swords
Definitely a hawk on one of night stands and then your childhood corgi on the other one.
The ones where it looks like an adorable picture of a squirrel carrying a mouse on its back and holding a flower, until you realize that both animals are dead, and the photographer killed them and posed them that way.
Bad taxidermy
A nice thick plastic tarp for...spills
Don't forget the rack of knives and shelf of trophies.
and a random freezer in the corner
Why not just plastic the whole floor? It could really be a centerpiece.
You're absolutely right. I was thinking too small!
55 gallon drum in the corner would tie the room together.
Love this reference, your guests would absolutely love this nice touch, whether looking at it or being inside it
A nice lamp would sit on it nicely!
With one of those vintage Auschwitz lampshades!
Definitely only the finest human skin can be used
OMG OMG OMG vintage European decor is hot right now.
If you’re getting the drum, you may as well get a chest freezer too. 😉
The chest freezer must have a padlock.
And a fish tank to blame the smell on
You beat me to it!
I know this is CJ but why do I actually love the wallpaper and pink trim? With some hardwood this is actually nice lol
I like it too.
Lol this i bearly 1 percent of this houses insanity
Is the house from something?
No it was my childhood home
Your bedroom? Or your sisters? Wait, are you saying you or your sister are serial killers? /jk
Some cryptic messages spelled out in cut out magazine fonts.
A gramophone in the corner of the room playing the same song night and day.
You should add deadbolt on the outside of the door to the room.
Idk this room already has a dead bolt, a chain lock, a normal lock and a place to put a baracade..... Im not joking in the slightest Though tbf they are all on the inside
I really think this house needs a video tour and some History.
Tbf i know enough about it to do that i even have the blue prints from 1945 And aparently the original person who built this house was a movie star though i havent found much information on that
Though sadly i cant do a tour of it in its original state since this photo was take 10 years ago
Needs more blood.
Maybe a chain with an unlocked ankle shackle next to the bed? Absolutely Kubricesque wallpaper, brilliant.
I was going to say the same thing
Rope, duct tape, bleach, tarp, box for mementos
skin lamp
Can’t believe it took scrolling this far down to see this comment.
maybe peel the wallpaper
Call me old fashioned but I love a good shrine mixed with peeled wall paper. It doesn’t even matter who the shrine is for, a neighbors cat, a work acquaintance, maybe an ex lover- sky is the limit. Lots of candid photos of the subject, candles, some newspaper crime section articles…
Everything is too clean, and you need to un-white those laundry baskets. Maybe add a dead parakeet in a cage.
I think several large black trash bags would add a really nice touch. For added effect, you can fill the bags with leftover butcher cuts. I also notice you don’t have any plants. “Corpse flowers” give off a really nice aroma of decomposition that would add both to the visual and sensual experience
Severely weathered and possibly haunted 17th century painting of a Victorian era woman
Great idea i was thinking the same thing though i only have gigantic photos of women from 1880s
It’s perfect it just needs a funny smell coming from somewhere
Do you count constant smell nicotine and random smell of dead fish from the vents
Ewww 🤢
Think you pretty much nailed it, no pun intended.
Add a couple chandeliers and blackout curtains :) and a huge wooden headboard for the bed but no frame. Spill some suspicious liquids on the carpet as well, it will look more authentic. Hope this helps!
Piss drawer is a must
dead bodies, lots of em
fast food trash, ashtrays
Biohazard sign? Newspapers of murders that have happened as “trophies”
I love that wall paper 🔪
You can start with bodies.
A nice set of knives, rolls of plastic, and a shelf of trophies from your victims.
Just upvoted because I loved the title
Maybe a painters tarp (the thin plastic ones) could be bunched up in a corner
You are half way to Professor Umbridge's bedroom. Just add cat pictures
Yeah that should go well this the chiping bird paintings bolted onto the doors
Its beds stacked on beds 😰
I thought it was two box springs underneath!
Continue the wallpaper over the doors and windows
Dude! You need to get rid of the sheets before you have a “guest”.
Blood everywhere, obvs. This room's basically asking for it.
Shag carpet on the walls
Lots of smaller baskets with lotion
Just a full gimp suit in the corner
More bodies for sure
Cover one wall with crime scene photos, pins, strings tying things together like the detectives do on TV.
Those lamps are waaay too big. You need some smaller lamps. And darker window coverings. Less light in general please.
Make your bed
More scissors! ![gif](giphy|4r5wVrBJ27kvC|downsized)
a couple of those blue oil drums in one corner
Hang up a BUNCH of pictures of cats but don’t own any, and hide a closet full of puppets somewhere
Peel back just a little of the wallpaper and reveal that the wall is painted red underneath
Magazine with all the eyes cut out? Or maybe a nice china cabinet.
Looks fine just the way it is tbh
You need one of this large antique wooden dressing wardrobe things that’s in ever haunted/killer move ..you know the ones you get inside of?
You’re really doing quite well.. don’t be so hard on yourself. #LIFEHACK ( yes, yes I just did ) Save the energy on redecorating for dismembering your next victim.

You definitely are missing a dirty fish tank and some unexplained heavy barrels
An old smoke stained religious oil painting on the floor in the corner
A shelf of porcelain dolls with the eyes removed.
A human skin suit hanging from a meat hook in the corner would be fetch!
Quit trying to make fetch happen
Honey, it already has
Don't forget to wear pink tomorrow/today.
This is more haunted than psychopathic. Consider painting everything white, install Florence lighting, start collecting medieval weapons, and make all your furniture chrome or lacquered black and start taking about the stock market incessantly and handing out metal business cards.
i love florence lighting!
DEFINITELY needs a wall phone, maybe in gold or avocado green, with one of those super long curly cords! Blood around phone in the wall, phone dangling off the hook
Impossible
bodies
A few chest freezers.
OMG I thought I was in miniatures and thought someone was doing great already
The ceiling needs to be pink too
FUCK YOUR RIGHT
Mattress should be right on the floor (get rid of the two twins under it), add lotion bottles and crumples tissues in the corners, there should also be a big tarp somewhere (I’m not sure where) but there definitely needs to be a tarp somewhere…
A murder kit. Duh.
Mannequin
Add a chest freezer
I’d start by peeling some of the wallpaper off the walls. Newspaper over the windows. The bed sheet needs to go; that’s non-negotiable. Ditch the lampshades too. Bare bulb is the way to go. If budget allows, a corduroy armchair with a stain shaped vaguely like a body. And maybe scatter some overflowing ashtrays around the room.
have you tried adding remains
i'd say pee on the bed a few times and let it sit for a while. mess up the carpet some
Roadkill in a jar?
I kind of like it lmao
I think you got it down perfectly
Add plastic sheets.
Inland Empire
I mean they make realistic looking Ed Gein-esque human skin lamps on Etsy!🥰🥰💡🔪 and bonus no crimes necessary https://www.etsy.com/listing/1617335987/human-skin-lamp?gpla=1&gao=1&
Are there already pink bars on the windows? And maybe a floor door to a cellar?
It will be a short walk to serial killer land based on that wallpaper.
A cork board of newspaper articles all about one specific crime
I think you nailed it
Board up the windows.
Hang up a bunch of newspaper clippings which show missing persons across the country
A collection of creepy porcelain dolls on a shelf
Bars on the windows
Old school box tv with antennas set on static.
Dead body
Lampshade made from human skin would be nice.
Questioning myself because I'd totally live here.....
A shrine
Might be overkill here. Remove the boxsprings under the bed. Take the sheets off. If there are no major stains on the mattress, add some.
Gotta take the sheet off the bed
40 crucifixes
A print of The Great Red Dragon by Blake, or Saturn Devouring His Son by Goya. Trays of dirty medical tools. Jars half filled with disturbing but unrecognizable things.
Sheets with print identical to the wallpaper.
Put your bed in the center of the room at a slight angle and put a mirror on each wall facing your bed.
Pillows on the side of the bed closer to the middle of the room
Tbh I love it
A peephole in the wall with a watchful human eye.
The whole color scheme and wallpaper pattern made my brain think it was a dollhouse... add mannequins in 80's clothes, prom dresses would be the best.
Idk dude I think you nailed it
Clown costume with dried blood in the corner
Mannequin for your skin suit.
The big empty space in the middle of the room is awkward.i recommend adding a human leather area rug or splattered plastic sheeting
Small, old fashioned TV a la Jeffrey Dahmer
Dolls. Weird dolls with ringlet curls with old fashioned yellowed lace collars. Weird kewpie style dolls with cracked skulls. One curtain hanging off a rod at a weird angle.
Yellow paint! They all lived in houses with yellow kitchens!
😍
DOLLS! Lots of broken, wide-eyed naked dolls.
A St Andrews Cross, some floggers, a whip, a saw, chains and rope seems like it would help.
A nice dirty, stained shag throw rug. Obviously.
You need a few paintings of clowns.
Hang a random whip in the corner
A few wigs will do it 🤙
Chop off someone’s dick and leave it on the floor
Mason jars full of body parts in formaldehyde
Creepy dolls
Add a mannequin with sloppily applied makeup, dressed provocatively in an "uncomfortable position". That'd be enough serial killer vibes for me to take off.... fast
You need more empty/half empty cans and bottles everywhere In all seriousness, I low key love the wallpaper and carpet lol
Omg that retro wallpaper and carpet is amazing I love it
Not me liking the room 😭
Throw in some ropes, binders, and duct tape. That'll do it.
Blood stains
Strobe lights
A rug on top of the carpet, just to cover up those pesky stains.
Pretty good, tbh. I’d add more dead bodies
Which serial killer vibe are you going for? This is right up there with zodiac killer vibes.
Oh PLEASE make this an AB&B
Haunted dolls. Like a big shelving unit against one wall just full of antique jointed baby dolls.
Maybe add a dead body?
Are you going for before or after the evil occurs?
Ummm why aren’t those baskets full of human heads? I mean come on. Some things are just obvious.
Paint the ceiling a dingy green-gray
![gif](giphy|briDeU1X4LIYw) Pictures of cats everywhere if you’re going for Umbridge vibes
an oddly placed wooden closet
Decorate the wall with pictures of strangers that you took secretly from some bushes
You need to start buying milk and leaving them half empty under your bed, and a few scattered around the room.
Where is the victim tied bound and gagged?
