September 28, 2024
A dull gray night with no stars visible, only a faded moon. In the background are the blurry outlines of a factory and a tall building with many windows glowing lurid yellow. Standing on a small hill is a figure wearing a top hat, a clock key sticking out of its back. The figure is standing over an eerie green fire and sprinkling some glowing green powder into it.

A red night sky over a dark landscape. In the foreground is a large sign, mostly hidden in shadow, with dimly visible letters that spell "Closed". In the background is a yellow fireball launching into the sky, its origin or purpose unclear. On the blue mountain ridge in the distance are some tall antennae and a small building with lit windows.

A weird spherical house with a large circular window and a circular door. On the surface of the house are glowing colored circles, their purpose unclear. Sitting in the open doorway is a cat. The interior of the house glows blue, but no details are visible. It is a deep blue night. The house is surrounded by forest. In the sky are several aircraft, shapes indeterminate, white lights glowing.

A figure wearing a fedora, a suit, and a tie stands at the end of a curving road. The figure is some distance from the viewer and illuminated by a blaze of yellow light, holding a flaming torch. The overall impression is that this is someone standing in the darkness holding a torch, but the overall painting is done in an impressionist style and composed of bright shades of blue, magenta, red, orange, and yellow.

A huge crescent moon hangs in the deep blue night sky. It's large enough and close enough to look spherical. Below it is a small mountain, blurry in the dark. Standing on top of the mountain next to a roaring yellow bonfire is a figure with wings.

A figure stands on a small stage under a dark sky. The stage is slightly conical with two shiny stripes towards the top, like the upper half of a barrel. The grass all around is glowing blue. In front of the stage is planted a small sign with a warning icon and illegible text on it. While it's not clear what the sign is warning against, the figure on top of the barrel is wearing a bright red-orange ghost costume with a single large blue eye on the front and holding a glowing wand with smoke coming off it. That, and it has a glowing halo above its head, and orange sneakers. Nature has its ways of indicating that some creatures are best left alone.

A rocky mountaintop at night. On the right is a small plateau that looks a little like a platform, with stairs leading up to it. Hovering over the plateau is a tall, featureless ghost with two eyes and a halo. It is phosphorescent green. Near the stairs is a small sign with an icon of a ghost and an arrow pointing towards the actual ghost. To the left stands a person, one arm raised. In the distance is the tree-covered outline of another mountain. A crescent moon hangs in the sky. This is a mostly purple drawing.

A blue night sky filled with stars, and a yellow-green meadow beneath it that seems to be glowing. Standing to the left in the meadow is a dark figure, holding up a wand with a flaming blue light at the end. In front of the figure, hanging in the sky like a mirage, is the glowing green outline of an ornate church window. The three circular panes at the top of the window, arranged in a triangle, and the square panes below it, form a key.

A grayscale drawing of a tall person walking at night under a full moon. There's a blurry forest in the background. The person has a scarf draped around their neck, and is wearing a very tall stovepipe hat. The hat has a hole and a small perch sticking out of it, like that of a birdfeeder. Flying in front of the moon is a large dark bird.

A fluorescent green meadow that looks as though it is illuminated by sunlight, except the sky above is dark and filled with stars. One star in particular is greenish and particularly prominent. In the right is the blurry dark outline of a distant forest, a slight glow above the trees as though the sun has just gone down. Hovering above the meadow is a very large orange-gold bubble. Below the bubble, making its way through the meadow, is a hunched, dark figure holding a staff.

A dark gray scene. Perched on top of a misshapen tower of what looks like rock stands a figure, clearly agitated, pointing a flashlight down to the right of the drawing. The beam of the flashlight is a glowing fluorescent green. In the background on the left, dim but unmistakable, another blurry figure is approaching.

A monochrome, charcoal drawing of a dark figure wearing a long black coat and holding a black umbrella. It stands by the side of the road, buildings in the background. Most unsettlingly, the figure is wearing a ghost mask from the Scream film series. The buildings in the background look like shopping centers and fast food places; the McDonalds logo can be seen. This is at night, the full moon high in the sky. Unlike most of the other stuff I post on here, I didn't imagine this; I saw this person standing by the side of the road while driving home tonight.

A person holding a lantern walks across an open field at night under a clear, starry blue sky. The person is approaching a large statue of a person wearing a suit and tie, hand extended as though giving a speech. The statue has no head; in place of a head is a large, glowing white moon-like smiley-face hovering above the statue.

A person sits on a dark, planetlike sphere hanging in a blue, starry sky. The sphere is about the size of a small house relative to the person. The person is sitting at a small round cafe table, illuminated by a ceiling lamp hanging from above. What the lamp is attached to is not clear. In the sky to the right is a crescent moon.

A scene at night. The full moon hangs in the sky, casting light on rows of clouds. A creature with fur, horns, and a tail holds a hand out towards a large raven perched on a pole. The scenery is barren and indeterminate. This is a primarily black-and-white drawing that looks like it was rendered in charcoal.

Night, deep in the forest. A full moon hangs in a clear, eerily greenish-blue sky. Something else is in the sky, also: a small flying saucer with a beam of white light emerging from an opening below. On the ground, to the left, buried amongst the trees, is a small cabin. Someone is opening the door to the cabin and yellow light pours out.

A glowing greenish-white snake emerges from a buried egg or seed, and wends its way through the soil to emerge into the world. The soil is crowded with rocks, roots, and bits of junk. The world the snake emerges into is a dark night with an eerie green glow on the horizon. Fog hangs in the air. To the right stands, a cloaked figure holding a long staff with a glowing green flame at the end of it. The figure and the snake appear to be interacting.

A deep woods at night. A crescent moon glows in a clear, starry sky. Beneath a thick hedge of trees are two figures, dueling with fencing swords. The figure on the left is wearing a khaki uniform with a patch on one shoulder and a rainbow stripe across it. The figure has a blue wolf's head and blue hands. The figure on the right is wearing a similar purple uniform and has a goldfish for a head.

A gray, cloudy night. A figure stands on a small soapbox in the middle of nowhere, the pose suggesting that they are giving a speech. Their left arm is extremely long and curved and they are holding a flashlight above their head, shining a dull gold beam down as though it's a spotlight. The beam of the light tapers off into haziness, suggesting fog.

A scene at night. The sky is deep blue and filled with stars. Rising out of a meadow is a short platform that looks cylindrical, like a pipe or pedestal. Hovering above it is a glowing blue-white circle with bluish flame or fog dripping off of it.

A scene at night. Two tall, thin towers rise out of the fog. Connecting them is a horizontal bridge with iron latticework beneath it. At the top of each tower is a glowing yellow light. A person stands on the bridge. Above, in the sky, is a glowing full moon. The bridge looks like an uppercase letter H. This is a primarily blue drawing with accents of fluorescent green for the fog.

A gray night, with a thin sliver of a hazy moon in the sky. The trunk of a large dead tree stands to the right, with a single branch extending off to the left. Hanging from the branch is a small sign that says "open". At the base of the tree is an arched doorway, casting white light out onto the surrounding meadow. In the top left of the trunk is a small, circular window, with white light beaming from that as well. In the sky above, a large bird can be seen.

A very large person sitting next to what is presumably a normal-sized phone booth. The booth looks like it's in a meadow in the middle of nowhere. The person would probably be twice the size of the booth if they were standing up. They are nevertheless using the phone, stretching the cord outside the booth. It looks like early morning or early evening; the sky is a darkening blue, and the yellow light from the booth illuminates the grass around it. The person is just a dark silhouette, with no facial features visible. A full moon sits high in the sky.

A dark, gray night. A remote, grassy hill. Rising up from the hill is a small, oddly shaped house, with no windows, a pointed roof, and a doorway like an open mouth. On the side of the house, at the top, is a large white eye. Hanging over the door is a small, glowing sign that says "open". This is a monochrome drawing rendered primarily in gray and black.

A dark night sky with a field of bright red grass below. Planted in the middle of the field is a small sign, pointing to the right, with no visible text. Hovering above the sign, floating through the air, are glowing green wisp-like creatures that suggest ghosts or spirits. High in the sky is a bright red disc that could be a moon.

A scene at night, somewhere in a remote, natural area. The ground appears to be covered with low trees, weeds, and shrubbery. Rising up out of the ground is a sign with the word "open" on it in glowing pink letters. The sign is tall, like a sign for a gas station. Approaching the sign in the background are multiple hazy figures who appeared to be carrying powerful flashlights, like a search party. This is a mostly blue and black drawing.

A dark night. A small creek winds through a black forest with a tall, conical mountain rising in the distance. Blazing into the sky from the mountain is a glowing light with a tail like a comet, suggesting a flare or a firework launched by someone on top of the mountain. In the foreground, on the bank of the creek, a small figure stands next to a fire, watching the light in the sky. This is a primarily blue drawing.

A house on the edge of a steep cliff at night. The house is small, with two lit windows, and a back porch that faces the cliff. A white light is glowing on the back porch. About halfway down the cliff is a small ledge on which is standing a very tall creature, about the size of the house, with two glowing eyes. There appears to be a staircase, or some sort of path, down the side of the cliff. There is no moon or stars. This is a grayscale drawing.

A glowing white figure stands on an icy surface at night, with blurry suggestions of a tree line in the background. The figure appears to be wearing a hat with a brim, and has a clock key sticking out of its back. It is holding up a black eyeball with a bright red iris in front of its face, staring at it. An iridescent green glow hangs in the sky. This is a bluish-indigo drawing.

A forest at night. The sky is heavy and gray with clouds. The trees are faded and ghostly. In the distance, but still unsettling close, stalks a giant figure with glowing eyes, holding a white glowing lantern. In the foreground, a much smaller figure stands in the shadows, watching.

A person stands on the edge of a large rectangular object—could be the edge of a building—shining a flashlight off to the right of the drawing. The location and time of day is indeterminate. The background is the dark blue of early morning or early evening. The flashlight beam is a greenish white. This is a barren place, surrounded by the unknown.

A desolate street winds through an abandoned town at night. The road looks bumpy and uneven, and curves among abandoned apartment blocks and a factory with a tall smoke stack. It is mostly dark; the scene is illuminated only by a full moon. The sky looks partly cloudy. In the sky, directly to the right of the moon and a little above it, is a witch on a broomstick.
