I guess for many parts of the world this is a relevant theme for the time of the year, however here in Australia it isn’t. We don’t do Halloween here, though many people try to do it, but if it is celebrated it is only by a small number.
When Dawn from The Day After said she wanted to do SPOOKY I thought I might struggle. I did ask her for some advice, but you will have to read her post to find out her instructions on this one.
I really had to think, but I hope I have done the theme proud. You will have to tell me.
I would like to thank Dawn for being our host once again and would ask you to go and check out her post as well. Don’t forget to put a link back to her post if you participate.

Made for b&w
I agree, Popi, thank you.
Your, daughter, so I read! With such a spooky shot, it would be good to see the before, after and always photos too.
I think that photo is the before and after. She moved while I was taking the photo. lol Thanks Geoff.
These are spookiy enough for anyone. Especially that terrifying blurred face. Here’s mine: https://margaret21.com/2024/10/31/spooky-perhaps-eerie/
Thank you so much Margaret. I didn’t even know I had that one.
Somehow, cemeteries haven’t ever felt spooky for me. So I also like the face best in your collection (fulfilling the prompt “spooky”). In Germany, Halloween is taking hold more and more. I don’t mind, it is just another day out of the ordinary, especially for children. They can dress up on the day and can dress up again when it’s carnival time. My take on the prompt is here: https://picturesimperfectblog.com/2024/10/30/context-is-everything/
I don’t know that I think they are either. I tend to think they are interesting and full of history. I don’t like halloween and I’m glad it hasn’t taken off here. I guess my problem is how American culture is taking over.
Thank you Elke.
This is perfect Leanne, i never doubted you. I especially like the side view of the tombstones from between the leaves.
Thank you so much Dawn, that is a very small cemetery near us. Very strange one.
Perfect week to share it then. 🙂
For sure. 😀
That spooky face is a winner for me Leanne

It is a hard one to resist, I did see yours and they look amazing.
Thank you.
😁😊
Great photos!
Thank you Egidio.
Halloween is huge in the States, Leanne but I’m glad that you don’t get into it because it’s so overdone here.
I have seen how huge it is, yeah, not at all here. It seems a bit weird to me, thank you John.
It’s huge! TV add and all kinds of chatter about it.
I can imagine, I have stuff in movies and the like.
You absolutely did the theme well!
Thank you so much Anne, good to hear.
I think you nailed spooky, Leanne!
Thank you Lois, I really wasn’t sure.
Spooky indeed!
Oh good to hear, thank you.
