3) Do not tarry in the lane, When shadows spider the stones, For stray moonlight might unveil A thin horror, pale as bones Painting - Tree Shadows on the Park Wall. Roundhay Park, Leeds by John Atkinson Grimshaw Verse by Jim Moon #PhantomsFriday #poems #GhostStories

1) In the Shadows of the Lane Do not tarry in the lane, After sunset stains the sky, When dead branches weave and writhe As daylight finally dies #PhantomsFriday #poems #GhostStories

2) Do not tarry in the lane, It's not safe there after dark, Rumours tell of grasping hands, And something with skin like bark #PhantomsFriday #poems #GhostStories

Thank you all for another phantasmagorically fabulous #PhantomsFriday. The feed has now disappeared into the ether and been replaced (easily, which amazed me) as #SpookySunday. I was going to take a break but I'm being confusing enough already - so the hauntings will begin again Sunday August 2.

The spirits of the dead come to Odysseus when he visits Hades, being comrades from the war regaling him with regrets and fates after the Trojan War, but also family who died waiting for him, including Anticlea, his mother who died of grief waiting for him. #PhantomsFriday

2) ‘Twas just evil said the judge, And so he hung ten years back, But they say there's blood stains still, Spattered on walls red and black. #PhantomsFriday #ghosts #poems

3) Did something pass that window? Surely a trick of the light... And not a hanged man's corpse Seeking blood to sup tonight... Painting - Old English House by Moonlight by John Atkinson Grimshaw Verses by Jim Moon #PhantomsFriday #ghosts #poems

A mid-Victorian 'stereoscope' card by one Martin Laroche. The card was used to create a 3D effect when looked at through a viewer. #PhantomsFriday #Victorian #ghost #photography

1) Passing an Old House by Moonlight That old house is still empty, Though once it was bright with life, But darkness calls it home now, Since the master killed his wife. #PhantomsFriday #ghosts #poems

Aka Manto is the Red Mantle, a spirit that haunts school restrooms. When alone, a student will find their stall has no paper, and hear someone ask if they want red or blue toilet paper. Red leads to a bloody massacre; blue sucks the blood out. #PhantomsFriday 🖼: M. Meyer

As the term "mancy" originally referred to divination, originally "necromancy" was less about raising zombies and more about using the dead to predict the future, such as by throwing bones, studying entrails, or summoning a prophetic ghost for questioning. 🎨 Ebenezer Sibley #PhantomsFriday #Mythology #Folklore #Occult #Sorcery #Necromancy #Monster #Undead #Ghost

Captain John McNeill Boyd died off Dublin's coast rescuing others at sea. When his body was recovered, his dog refused to leave his side, even after burial. Even after death by starvation, the dog remains, haunting Glasnevin Cemetery in eternal vigil. #PhantomsFriday

The nameless Völva of Völuspá is Norse myth's most famous ghost, summoned by Odin to give prophecy. She speaks of Ragnarok and all that leads to it, dooming Odin and the gods. Many suggest she is Angrboda, jotun mate of Loki and mother of monsters #PhantomsFriday 🖼: GAVade

A creepy #legend is attached to Jedburgh Abbey, Scottish Borders. At his wedding in 1285, Alexander III was startled by a spirit which suddenly manifested among the congregation. It prophesied his death in the coming year. A few months later he was fatally thrown from his horse. [1/2 #PhantomsFriday

Gustave Dore: 'Shades Of French Soldiers From The Past Exhort Soldiers To Victory On The Rhine'. Drawn in 1875, the subject shows that the 'Angels Of Mons' idea accidentally over-popularised by Arthur Machen during World War 1 had been around for some time. #PhantomsFriday #Machen #ghosts #art
