"Thirteen Spooks, Maybe More"
I offer for your consideration this spooky old Victorian mansion in the moonlight... But wait! What's that?! Is there someone hiding in the shadows: Someone -- or something -- peering from a darkened window? A half-seen form lurking in the bushes?
My painting bears this title simply because I have hidden a host of ghosts in it.
Thirteen Spooks, Maybe More was one of the first paintings I created for The Haunted Studio, and year after year, it is still the most popular subject. I've often wondered why. One of my collectors put it this way:
"The first thing that comes to mind is its tight composition. I love the large moon looming behind the house. I thought it would be a great conversation piece at our Halloween parties, with our guests trying to find all the ghosts. I also love the lights in the windows... very intriguing and mysterious. You left a lot up to our imaginations which is always so appealing."
I'll let you in on a secret: There are way more than thirteen! Some determined ghost hunters have found more than twenty, and I know for a fact that there are several they still haven't spotted. (On the other hand, some people find more spooks than I included... which is REALLY spooky!)
Thirteen Spooks, Maybe More has been meticulously scanned from my original watercolor and digitally printed with fade-resistant inks on specially treated heavyweight watercolor paper. I personally inspect your print, sign it, slip it into its protective clear plastic envelope, and include with it a page of helpful framing hints from The Haunted Studio.
