If you thought Disney's most infamous villains were terrifying as animated characters, just imagine what it would be like to see them IRL. Nightmare material, am I right?

Well, your nightmares have officially been brought to life just in time for Halloween: A Finnish artist named Jirka Väätäinen just released digital paintings of Cruella de Vil, Jafar, and more that look creepily realistic. Väätäinen is the same guy who created those viral realistic portraits of Disney princesses and princes a while back, but this batch of characters is more sinister than anything you've seen from him before.

Scroll down to check out his five latest pieces, plus work from his previous Disney villains series (if you dare).
