Woman With Daisies and Spirit, Circa 1875

I love calculated spirit photography. The stereotypical nature of the ghost amuses me to no end, but the composition is breathtaking. The daisies really add a candid element to it.

Ghost Hunters

Posted by – January 27, 2010

I’m both terrified and attracted to the idea of ghosts. I’m the first to admit that I love abandoned houses — mostly just to watch how something decays — but the possibility of haunting is also pretty intriguing. I recently watched The Shining for the first time (I know, I can’t believe I waited this long) and was totally freaked, especially by the final scenes. (Not going to spoil it for you, but if you haven’t seen it, you must watch it, if only for the elevator blood scenes.)

However, there’s a more approachable way to keep some friendly poltergeists in your apartment (that don’t slam doors or break dishes). Dutch studio Design Drift created these plexiglass “ghost” chairs using (what else) lasers. The best part is that you can customize the shape inside. I love the ethereal smoke appearance. Now I just need an all-black apartment to show the ghosts off to best effect. Black light parties will also be a heck of a lot easier!
