Carrie & Matilda
As Matilda Wormwood does some research through the Chamberlain Archives, wanting to know more about the history leading to the events of the Black Prom, Carrie White’s ghost looms over the young girl, waiting for the right moment to strike.
I had been meaning to do something like this for a while since I got into painting this for a while. A picture for a potential movie poster or graphic novel of a crossover a lot of us want but can’t due to copyright: Carrie White and Matilda Wormwood.
I like to imagine the story taking place some time after the events of Matilda (the 1996 film version) in which Matilda begins to have visions of the old town of Chamberlain, Maine raided by ghosts, led by a very sad girl in red. Somehow she visits Chamberlain to investigate, asks the surviving townsfolk about what they recall what happened and why before finding a volume of the town’s archives. Later on, she confronts Carrie’s ghost, sympathizing as well as empathizing with the teenage ghost before somehow helping her realize the error of her ways and finding peace. In other words, my own take on the Laika stop-motion film ParaNorman.
Carrie belongs to Stephen King
Matilda belongs to Roald Dahl
