Here in Northern California we are just getting our electricity turned back on. Since we were warned that the outage could last for several days and my devices are all old and in need to new batteries, I have basically been off-line since Saturday night. I only turned on the EyePhone once every couple of hours for updates on the numerous fires in my area. So for this week’s ThursdayDoors, Norm’s Frampton’s photo challenge which I truly enjoy and hate to miss out on, here are some scary doors from over the years!
Renwick Ruin, Roosevelt Island, New York City. For many emigrants, their only home in America if they were unfortunate enough to have contracted small pox. This place really gave me the willies.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt Monument, Washington DC. Frightening because it could happen again.
Fort Sumter, South Carolina, where many soldiers were bombarded for days by their fellow countrymen.
Amtrak Tunnel. Just spooky is all. Happy Halloween everyone!
The fires in California are terrible. I hope that somehow the situation is gotten under control very soon.
We’re not completely safe until the rains come I’m afraid.
Hi Jan,
Your never “off-line” since you operate under your own power. Satellites passing over head can spot your glow. In fact I can see you from here, under the pumpkin moon. So let us celebrate the only decent holiday that I know of, Halloween in all its fatal glory. As Broken Social Scene says, “Here we go!” Thanks. Duke
Thanks Duke – you’re very sweet as usual. We had a wild Halloween night – mass shooting about a mile from the house. Mostly young people at a party that got out of hand.
Duke’s right on there, Jan!! Keep on shining. And you too, Duke!
Thank you Mary. You too!
Jan, I just looked at the news and saw the story about the shooting near your home. I’m sorry. Another tragedy involving guns.
Perfect Halloween entries!
Thanks!
Be safe & take care!
Thank you. So far, so good.
Excellent Scary Door selection! I kept saying I would find a house done up for Halloween, but then I kept working and otherwise doing things, lol!
Thanks Joey. Sometimes you just don’t have the time! No worries.
Great doors. Sorry about the power issues, and more sorry about the fire danger. Stay safe. Wishing for rain and keeping a good thought for you.
We are too. So far nothing on the horizon.
You have solar – were you able to get any power i.e. do you have battery back-up?
Like the doors!
No – the only benefit to the solar panels is a low electrical bill. Sadly.
Excellent selection of scary doors. Our power was knocked out by a bad windstorm on Friday morning. We finally got it back late Sunday night.
Oh my – well hopefully it wasn’t too chilly.
Cool scariness. Love doors, but will admit that some of them go to places I don’t want to go.
I know what you mean!
Great doors! Somehow I didn’t realize you lived fairly close, Only when I saw your comment on Thurs. Doors I realized I had not heard from you a while. These power outages really gets one off track of our blog life, I found out! But also, it takes a while to get back in the flow of it afterward! Hopefully we are fine for a while.Not as bad as LA where at least 6 fires are burning!
Thanks! I can get that cutting off the power is a necessary evil but I wish they would have been more consistent. Hopefully it will rain soon!
Nice scary door pics!! Be safe…. we are aghast up here in Toronto. Sometimes it just seems like California is burning down.
Although, about 3 years ago a town of 88,000 people mostly burned down in northern Alberta.
That’s terrible. There’ve been bad fires up in Alaska as well and now poor Australia is suffering. It’s worldwide.
True. Take care!
They’re very interesting places 😊😍😍😍
I thought so. The doors are gone so they’re primarily just openings!
Great scary doors, JT!! It’s a bummer about the electricity. We were hit for about an hour or so last month.
I can understand the dangers of high wind and old electrical equipment but it wasn’t well organized or planned. Lots of chaos.
Absolutely. We pay enough taxes.
Scary and fun doors
And hope everyone is doing okay in your area – thoughts and prayers going up 😊🙏
Thank you!
They are scary indeed ☺️
