18 Ghostly Illustrations

From Eerie Draped Photography to Undead Portraits

— March 20, 2011 — Art & Design
If these featured ghostly illustrations don't spook you, I'm not sure what will. Gearing away from the typical "boogieman" look that no longer scares anyone, these pieces are sure to make an impression with their more realistic and creepy nature.

It is often what appears most real that makes an individual the most afraid. This concept is thoroughly portrayed here, as contorted faces, realistic collages and bleeding faces are prevalent within these images. From distorted fantasy illustrations to darkly daring designs, these ghostly illustrations will not disappoint if you're looking for a scare. If you dare, browse through this morbid and horrifying top list to see a few images that may haunt your dreams for quite a few nights to come.
