Horror homo Alan Rowe Kelly

For seventeen years, Alan Rowe Kelly worked as a hair and make-up artist. His work was seen on Comedy Central, Court TV, MTV, and in the fashion world. Although he loved his work, and still does it part time, make-up wasn’t his ultimate goal.

Since early childhood, Kelly has been obsessed with horror movies. “I grew up watching Creature Features on TV,” he says. “Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein was the first film to make an impression on me. I loved The Wizard of Oz, not because of Judy, but because of the witch!”

Kelly loves evil characters in movies, and always wanted to play them. Films like House on Haunted Hill, Horror Hotel , and TV shows like Dark Shadows (“Great, campy horror. I lived for it!”) inspired his youth. He finally reached a point where he had to live his dream.
