Clive Barker

Truly tragic.

Hasn't he been living with HIV since the 80s? For awhile he had that weird body builder steroids look but I remember someone saying that could have been a side effect of the HIV medications.

Did a search and found that he is only 67. Looks like he is about 10 years (or more) older.

Shitballs, isn't there some weird story about him?

Love Weaveworld, and The Great and Secret Show, and The Books of Blood.

He was sued by his former boyfriend for giving him HIV.

The boyfriend claimed Clive had an affair with his cousin, who had AIDS, and did kinky shit with syringes.

And was addicted to painkillers and meth.

R5 Thank you, knew it was awful

It doesn’t help that he’s wearing a pajama top in OP’s pic!

That seems to be an actual dress shirt, just in size XXXL to cover up his swollen liver, which is the size of three footballs from decades of HIV meds, opioids and meth.

Looking really worse for the wear. A lifetime of BDSM and HIV can do that to you.

Where’d he pickup the tragic trick?

....

^MURIEL, he's back

Time....to play.

Jesus Wept

It's just a puzzle box.

I had no idea. Holy shit.

He needs a haircut and a different shirt it would change his looks.

Perhaps he's teasing us.

Is he teasing us?

Yeah R17 a different shirt that would cover his face.

She’s a proper eldergay now, darlings. x

30 years ago his looks would have made him my dream husband.

Today is the stuff of nightmares!

Lawsuit dismissed as baseless:

[quote]When the case first went in front of the judge, he told Armstrong to produce some more evidence, but for whatever reason, he never altered the filing at all. Consequently, when the suit was dismissed earlier this week, it was dismissed with prejudice, meaning Armstrong cannot bring it back at any point in the future, even if he finally produces evidence to support any of this.

he alwys had a cigar in his mouth. bad habit dude.....bad.

when he was very young

He looks radically different in each photo.

[quote]Did a search and found that he is only 67. Looks like he is about 10 years (or more) older.

He allegedly has HIV and is British on top of that, so it’s no surprise he looks older.

Hawking his art work as well

Hope that’s not his new boyfriend. Clive, even now, can do better.

Behold, the ravages of age!

he's fine, he sends his love!

I believe he had throat cancer recently. For the past decade, it seemed inevitable, because he always spoke with a heavy rasp like he was getting over strep throat or something.

R29 Why? The guy on the right is hot in a down to earth kind of way. I'm guessing it's just a fan.

looks like it was taken at a convention. I wonder how much it costs to take a pic or just autograph. They leave with garbage bags of cash!

Oh my Christ what happened to him? Weaveworld is my favorite book.

Eek, it's like looking at the picture of Dorian Gray...

he smoke crack? my friend who died from throat cancer had voice like barkers.....

R37 Barker has polyps in his throat. Anyways his gruesome S&M fetish always creeped me out

You just know Clive has to be into some twisted shit. He's probably really into fisting and sucking on rosebuds and shit.

When I read Weaveworld, with the cum and shit monster things, I presumed the writer was a little kooky, the book is wild

HAWT!!!

That doesn't look like a pajama top. The buttons are too small. It's just an insane oversized shirt that's all puffed up.

I'd be a bit dissapointed if Clive Barker wasn't a total freak to be honest.
