Vintage Haunted House Pictures
Lit windows with nobody home. The haunted house on greeting cards was always drawn from the same low angle, and it always worked.
A Merry Hallowe'en to You
The house on the hill, its windows lit for no one, with bats crossing the moon.
c. 1915 greeting card
The Chapel in the Fog
One window still lit in a burial chapel nobody has tended for fifty years.
c. 1933 greeting card
The Old Mill House
Mist off the millstream, one lit window, and a wheel that hasn't turned in fifty years.
