🖤 REST IN PEACE, TIM CURRY 🖤
1946–2026
Today, the horror and entertainment worlds have lost an absolute legend.
The Darkness Cosmetics family is deeply saddened by the passing of Tim Curry, a performer whose unforgettable characters have entertained, terrified, delighted, and inspired generations of fans.
💋 Dr. Frank-N-Furter — The Rocky Horror Picture Show
🎈 Pennywise — IT
🔎 Wadsworth — Clue
🏴☠️ Long John Silver — Muppet Treasure Island
And those are only a handful of the incredible characters he brought to life throughout his extraordinary career.
For horror fans, Tim Curry gave us one of the most iconic portrayals of Pennywise ever put on screen. For generations of misfits, outsiders, performers, makeup artists, and members of the alternative community, The Rocky Horror Picture Show became something much bigger than a movie — and Tim Curry's Dr. Frank-N-Furter became a cultural icon.
His unmistakable voice, wicked sense of humor, incredible presence, and ability to completely transform himself made him truly one of a kind.
There will never be another Tim Curry.
Tonight, we're raising a glass to a legend who taught generations of us to be a little stranger, a little bolder, and to never dream it — be it.
Thank you for the scares.
Thank you for the laughter.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you for the memories.
Rest in peace, Tim Curry. 🖤
Your light will continue to shine at the late-night, double-feature picture show forever.
