Thanks for listening and your kind comments. I live at the end of a dead end road and even the ghosts don't come on Halloween.

That is trippy and sinister. Your title really captures that ghost story mood. I'm not sure how you achieved this, but it's super cool! The guitar is twisted in a good way, and the organ sound is perfection.

Whoa! This is wonderfully spooky and devilishly dark with the chord choices, scale and reverb buzzy and swirly sounds. Fabulous phrasing and pacing - I’m glad I’m in a room with bright lights and I didn’t play this at bedtime!

Wow! Just wow! Thanks so much for participating! I need to write an instrumental sometime.

Love it.. it has like an underwatery, shipwreck, sea-ghostly vibe.

Very ghostly, spooky sounds. Maybe good to play on Halloween when all the spooks show up for a treat
