I remember seeing pictures of Kirk Hammett’s horror collection in the pages of Metal Edge magazine when I was in junior high. As a horror lover and a little metalhead myself it was a pretty amazing thing to see one of my then idols surrounded by the other genre that also captivated me. Although my musical interested have changed as I got older, my love of horror obviously only strengthened. Looks as though Hammett kept up his collection too as a portion of his horror art collection will be displayed at the “It’s Alive! Classic Horror And Sci-Fi Art From The Kirk Hammett Collection” from July 13, 2019 to January 5, 2020 in Toronto, Canada. The full article detailing Hammett’s collection and the event can viewed over at Blabbermouth here.
