Philip Roye, 27, from Montreal, Canada, calls himself London and performs in drag shows, displaying hundreds of tattoos on his body.
According to London, he got his first tattoo at the age of 13. At 18, the young man became a make-up artist, and at 20 - a professional tattoo artist. Among the hundreds of living vampire tattoos are bats, horror characters and occult symbols.
I try to externally express my inner passion for horror films, demons, vampires, sexy and bizarre imagery. I like to create a special atmosphere with my mystical and gloomy appearance, - quoted by the London Daily Star. According to him, he loved this aesthetic since childhood. “I don’t drink blood, but I also have a dark side that vampires like, their attractiveness, appearance, clothes. In art, blood is a symbol of beauty and creativity,”he reflects. “If only it was possible, I would become a vampire, but for now I’m just appropriating their culture,” laughs London. He also calls himself tafofil - the young man really likes to walk in cemeteries.

London clarifies that it receives an equal share of hate and fan comments.
My appearance is condemned a lot, they do not understand, it happens that I face aggression. But I try to concentrate on those who understand and support me, he says. Now he is even supported by his family, who at first refused to accept the hobby of the makeup artist and tattoo artist.
