Old Oddfellows Hall in the ghost town of Avard,OK. many years ago. It was also a dance hall at one time. The building on the right may have been the former post office,which closed in 1963. Avard was once a rail hub but declined during the dust bowl years of the 1930's. Today its population stands at 26 and it is unincorporated....
There maybe some real ghosts that reside in Avard...

Ghost Ranch is a 21,000-acre retreat and education center located close to the village of Abiquiú in Rio Arriba County in north central New Mexico, United States. It was the home and studio of Georgia O'Keeffe, as well as the subject of many of her paintings. Wikipedia - We just returned from a long weekend in Santa Fe, NM
Not all of the towns in this region of Italy are so pretty. Consider Craco, a ghost town. It was finally abandoned after the 1980 Irpinia earthquake, but it had long been declining, starting with a series of landslides that were provoked by poor engineering of infrastructure, sewer and water systems. In 1972 a flood worsened the situation, preventing a possible repopulation of the historic center.

Tell me, are you the ghost of jealousy?

Ghost (or corpse) plant, Monotropa uniflora, is a parasitic plant that contains no chlorophyll so it can't generate energy from sunlight. It is a mycoheterotroph, and so is the host of certain species of mycorrhizal fungi.
I haven't done an abstract shot for quite a long time, and yes, this was completely by accident. Thanks to the inspiration of other macro photographers, I was scrutinising the moss growing on the trees locally, happened upon this unusual plant growth from a pocket of moss and so, on the Nikkor 55-200mm I affixed the DCR250 and thanks to the awkward focus points, I had to switch to manual, rocking on my ankles I got this shot, in PP I noticed it looked so Alien and yet ghostly at the time.
Thus it got me thinking, albeit all things are energetic wave form information, be in one realm of any given dimension, 3D, 4D, or 5D, spirits are absolute, so thus, isn't it unusual how we categorise Aliens and Ghosts into secular partitions? An Alien can surely have a spirit thus upon expiration of "physical" life, can go on energetically to the next realm as a Spirit. Concluding that Homosapiens, Aliens and Ghosts are in fact one and the same thing, acutely a conscious multiplicity of differing, interchangeable and energetic Interdimensional, waveform information constructs of infinite awareness.
Psst: Guess what? You never actually die.
I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)

This is a Flatid Planthopper (Flatormenis spp.) or maybe it's a dream. It is perched on a developing Wild goldenglow (Rudbeckia laciniata) blossom. It is funny my "go to" insect identification web-site didn't
It's almost 10pm and a deserted Exeter Central sees the arrival of a pair of DMUs with Pacer 143618 leading.
The train is in fact an empty stock repositioning move from platform 3 running under the headcode 5E57. It will shortly depart from this platform (2) as the 9.55pm to Exeter St Davids (2E57). The unit on the back is Sprinter 150265.
I selected this frame from the sequence because of the way the driver was highlighted while the front-end remained largely in shadow.
I've switched commenting off for this one.

Ghost brides wear black b/c wearing white would be like, you know, why bother.
This is a real photo of a real person, obviously digitally manipulated....with some flourishes added.
It's here. It's Halloween. :-))
I thought I'd close with a not so creepy photo....and least I hope not creepy. (remember, she's real ;-)
This concludes my run of the Halloween Horror Follies. I again thank you all for the views and comments and faves.
It's been a lot of fun for me being able to share them with you. And you've been enormously kind, supportive and likewise fun.
I'm going to now take a little break from Flickr for just a bit.
Happy Halloween (or whatever) and with that I send you all my most sincere, heartfelt, fondest BOO!!!
The late afternoon light shines on the gracefully eroded Kitchen Butte above Ghost Ranch, a cultural and scientific retreat center in northern New Mexico. The American artist Georgia O'Keefe was profoundly inspired by the landscape here, and purchased a house nearby that she used as her summer home for 40 years.
Happy Sliders Sunday everyone!
... or if you're not sliding then Happy Sunday!

I wanted to tell this dog, it's okay, buddy. It's safe to go inside. They have the best charred Brussels sprout tacos, and no real ghosts. Honest! ;)

Bodie is an original mining town from the late 1800’s. What’s left today stands in a state of “arrested decay” and is maintained by the California State Parks System, who took over the town in 1962 to make it a State Historic Park.
I composed this image of an abandoned historic farm building while visiting the hamlet of Rowley, Alberta (population 11), a place now characterized as an Alberta ghost town.
For those interested, the history of this town is presented below.
Rowley (like many other prairie towns) was settled around 1910 by the families of nearby farmers to efficiently collect and load farm products onto trains bound for Calgary. The soils in the Rowley region are ideal for agriculture due to their high fertility.
It wasn’t long before the town of Rowley became a hub of activity: large fields were planted, harvested, and transported through the Rowley train station. Between 1915 and 1929, the local farmers built stores, banks, and other services in town so that they didn’t have to travel long distances to get what they needed. A school, post office, and church were built and Rowley was officially connected by rail to the rest of the province.
The Great Depression experienced across the entirety of North America had no mercy on its relentless tear across western towns. Rowley was no exception to the struggles of widespread drought and market collapse.
The grain industry lost most of its value. Farmers – used to dealing with hardships – toughed the economic ruin out and did their best to provide for their families and continue building the community despite the market. Farmers who had overextended themselves upgrading their farms and livelihoods were left being unable to afford the upkeep of their farm and business in town began to close.
By the 1940s people started packing up their belongings and using that new train station to leave town. Rowley, Alberta was in decline. The municipal district office was moved out of Rowley and fires had leveled many homes and businesses.
When Alberta’s highway system was constructed in the 1950s, Rowley was bypassed entirely and left behind. These roads made it easy for young people to leave Rowley in favour of Drumheller, Calgary, or Edmonton. In the 1950s, both the hotel and curling rink burned down and were never replaced. The school and railway station both closed down in 1965.

Died last night in my dreams
Walking the streets
Of some old ghost town
I tried to believe
In God and James Dean
But Hollywood sold out
Saw all of the saints
Lock up the gates
I could not enter
Walked into the flames
Called out your name
But there was no answer
And now I know my heart is a ghost town
My heart is a ghost town
