Hooray! I think it has been over a year but thanks to all for the votes!
With Halloween on the horizon, I want to see your best spooky structures! It could be a creepy castle, haunted house, dilapidated building...it can be in the foreground, the background the wholeground? Anyway, you get the idea. My entry is below!
Oh and yes, there are rules -
- Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest.
- Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before Jan 1 2005.
- Covers must be posted before voting begins.
- Voting begins on Tuesday October 26 at 12:01am PST and ends at 11:59am PST 10/26/15.
- Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most.
- Put the name in bold. Votes not in bold will not count.
- The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period ends.
- The winner chooses the theme for the next week's contest.
- If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't vote for it; don't post disparaging remarks about it. If a cover is more recent than the Classic time frame, kindly point it out and the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins.
- When posting covers, remember GCD (aka comics.org) doesn't allow hot-linking and if you use them for the source to post your cover, you will see it because it is in your cache, but no one else will be able to see it.
Use a source other than the GCD for your image for others to see it.

A Jack Sparling painted cover (and the first of what I suspect will be a lot of covers from The House of Secrets).

I'm going to count "creepy old graveyard" as a "structure". Or the gravestones, at the very least.

"The Haunted House-Mobile"?!?!?
Let me guess. Skeleton forced to move inland because of rising sea level brought on by climate change? After relocating, he terrorizes people who don't recycle and frightens children who leave the lights on when they leave the room!
Actually, that image is just as scary without the skeleton!

I can see htat most here don't really care for anything after the mid 80ies, but hey, you gotta go with what you believe in So here's a cover from whom I consider the master of casual urban horror, Ted McKeever. His stories often feature a urban setting as the main character, and he always manages to bring out the menacing aspect of man made structures. The windows are peeping Tom eyes, the bricks are teeth, the pipes, chimeys etc are its nails, and the cars and trains the living bacteria crawling on it. No wonder men always sorely stick out...
