Dark Roasted Blend has a great series of Nightmare Playgrounds and Children’s Sculptures, Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3. Mike Kupietz describes them as:

Photographs of surreal, decrepit playgrounds that were designed so strangely or fallen into such ugly/beautiful disrepair that they’d give any sensible kid nightmares. It’s as if Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean had gotten into the playground business.

Thanks to Mike Kupietz for the tip!
