I've never been much of a Halloween person -- I still hold my breath when I pass by cemeteries, have had panic attacks when my dishwasher clunkily stops at 2 am, and my old roommates' insistence that we had a "spirit" in our dorm room has left permanent emotional scars.
So while you won't ever see me cozying up to a haunted house, I think neglected old gems like the one above are gorgeous. After years of hastily constructed McMansions, it seems like more and more people are falling in love with older homes and are restoring them back to their former stateliness.
Definitely a trend I'm fully on board with. The sparkly vampire, True Blood, "O.M.G. vampires are like so for realz" thing -- not so much. :)
Wishing you all a very fun Halloween weekend!
