I LOVE this house!

All it needs is a little yard work & some new windows! But really, I'm not trying to be funny. If any of you know my style, its sad, lonely, and often creepy pictures. Abandoned structures are my obsession.

Maybe Tim Burton will decide to film his next movie here. Sweeney Todd: Warwick, Rhode Island. (Ok, that was being funny).

That is kind of sad. Looks like it was a proud old house at one time. The growth around the house lends to the mystery. I am sure there is at least one ghost in there somewhere.

Here's an old house I found on a backroad. Be sure to read the words to This Old House in the comments. (www.jpgmag.com)

Love this..I don't think I'd want to venture inside. It looks as if all it needed was a bit of wind and it would be all the ground!!
