Well, old chap ... tonight’s the premiere of the sixth and final season of the best show on TV about vampires, friendship and Staten Island: FX’s WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS.
We don’t know if we’re ready for the beginning of the end (we’re not), but we know it’s time to hang another painting in the haunted halls of the Vampire Residence.
So we asked Robert Laskey to mark the occasion with a majestic new portrait of Laszlo Cravensworth and Nadja of Antipaxos. (And Doll With The Spirit of Deceased Human Nadja Inhabiting It.)
This timed edition, screenprinted poster is available Tuesday, October 22 at NOON CT through Sunday, October 27 at NOON CT ... only at MondoShop.com.

"I love monsters, so when I was contacted by Mondo to do a poster for FX’s WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, a show about some of the funniest monsters out there, I was more than thrilled! The biggest challenge was having to choose only a couple of the vampires and humorous elements to put into the painting. Laszlo’s witches’ hat was suggested by Josh Manderville [Mondo Art Director], and I thought it would be fun to include Nadja’s doll of herself. I wanted to capture Laszlo’s pompous nature, so I chose to have him posing in a manner reminiscent of those classical self-aggrandizing military portraits. For Nadja, with her haughty personality, I figured she would most definitely want to be portrayed seated on her throne at The Vampiric Council. Moody greens and blues make for an eerie atmosphere; and the subjects being vampires, well, it seemed fitting that there be some accents of red."
-Robert Laskey
"Laszlo Cravensworth and Nadja of Antipaxos’ relationship has endured for centuries and will continue to endure for centuries to come. Nadja (and Dolly) sits upon the throne as a leader of the Vampiric Council with her loyal Lazlo by her side (cursed witch-skin hat in hand). We are so honored to celebrate their eternal rule over humanity with the horror-portrait mastery of Rob Laskey behind the brush."
