Fall Forever : The Witches You Burned

On a bright orange day, the skeletal forms of three witches stand ominously facing the viewer. The witches are engulfed in flames, their pointed hats, gowns, and skulls appear as dark silhouettes. Their bodies are ravaged, one is missing an arm, the center one’s ribcage is exposed, and the last has a large gash through her hip. They stand on a manicured lawn sprinkled with fall leaves in an otherwise normal suburban street, hinted at by the simple geometric shapes of homes behind them.

Fall Forever : The Crossing Guard

A Halloween night scene shows three children in homemade costumes—a Dalmatian, a superhero, and a mad scientist—looking terrified at a crosswalk. Behind them, is their poor, run-down neighborhood. Across the street, the homes are well-kept and warmly lit with Halloween decorations and string lights, hinting that the better candy awaits on that side. In the middle of the street however, floats a ghostly crossing guard, wearing a tattered safety vest marked with a dark tire track. It holds up a bent stop sign to the children and it’s cracked glasses glow with eerie yellow light. The entire scene is bathed in a sepia-orange glow under a full moon, evoking both nostalgia and dread.

Fall Forever : Burn Away

Standing ominously facing away from us and towards a horizon of silhouetted suburban homes, The Groundkeeper holds his rake in one hand as a pile of leaves burns beside him. He is dressed in his signature newsboy cap, bag mask that covers his head, ribbed puffer vest, plaid shirt, workman’s gloves, jeans, and boots. It is an overcast day, and the dark figure stands in contrast with the bright sky. Laves fall around him and the entire image is tinted orange.

Fall Forever : Can I pet your cat?

In an orange lit room, a strange, long, dark arm reaches through the blinds of a sliding door to pet a black cat that walks up to greet it. String lights line the door and a decorative jack o lantern paper cut out is taped to the wall above the cat.

You are a ghost driving a meat covered skeleton made from stardust riding a rock floating through space. Fear nothing.
