Artist's Comments

"Phasmophobia (or spectrophobia) is a type of specific phobia, being an abnormal and persistent fear of ghosts, spectres or phantasms. It derives from the greek words "phasma" meaning "apparition" and "phobos" meaning "fear". It is often bought about by experiences in early childhood and causes sufferers to experience panic attacks." (quote from Wikipedia)

this is the scariest place on earth.
I used to walk here several times a week with my dog, and everytime I passed by this section of the woods, I would run.
this place is located deep in the woods, and it's the most quiet place ever.
the silence is almost deafening; no sounds of birds or traffic from the nearby freeway. nothing but dead silence...
and the occasional SNAP! of a branch breaking, as if someone just stepped on it.
but I have never ever met any people in this part of the woods... it's always only been me (and my dog)...
and.... whatever that thing is :above: :fear:

The states of awareness we currently perceive are only a thiny fraction of the whole.
The continuum extends deep into nonphysical areas of the universe far beyond our current physical comprehension

For such a creepy place it's a beautiful photo, and you stopped running to take it. The spectre is probably just a light leak :aww:
