Aura Dior. A Magpie tale.

Clothes maketh the ghost.



















It just shows that we are such prudes,
depicting our Revenant dudes
in white flowing garments
when really, the varmints 
would most likely come back as nudes!

More revenant revelations at Magpie Tales.

    But if we left the average person's ghost naked, he or she would be remarkable for absurdity rather than scariness.

    Snow nailed it. So there will be no nude ghosts. If there were, I wonder at what age a ghost would choose to be upon its return. I think I was cutest at about three. Hardly scary though, Suz.

    I was ready for a taste of the Stafford Ray brand of humor .... I'm one of twelve jurors in a trial that will continue through the week. Tons and tons of medical testimony. I am exhausted and it's only Tuesday! Thanks Stafford ~ by the way, I found that ghostly image quite attractive.

    Well, according to your logic they shouldn't come back in a body either ;) just an ethereal gloopy non-entity, barely visible to the eye (more a feeling than a visual) - but of course there is no such things as ghosts, are there!

    nope.....I think the naked ghost would be far scarier......!

    I think I have it figured out. Contrary to their popular image, ghosts are really quite style conscious!

    Sorry Suz, no naked photos were taken when I was three. In fact I have no naked photos of me at any age... and to take one now would be, well, let's say; 'Like a dead turkey, I look better dressed'.

    haunting.

    ghosts, dead souls, they wear clothes humans could not see.


    interesting magpie.
