Sometime in the future, you might find this on the internet posted by some random guy trying to prove ghosts are real

Samara is coming
Pure, Eevee
At the end i choose a scene from “The ring 3”. All made and painted in blender. Cant remake the head shadows from Samara with real lights, so i painted an extra texture and mixed it with the the color and rough map.

Thanks, I’m glad you noticed. It’s one of those few times where the noise actually becomes a tool that plays into the final result 
It’s all sampled from the render. The only light source is an emissive plane behind the door, which produced a really noisy result. It’s enhanced with some unsharpen masking in the compositor…
Haha, that was kind of where I was coming from! I feel like the best effects of unsettling images (and particularly horror) come from the ambiguity of what you’re seeing. The more understated or uncertain the thing you’re seeing is, the more you can fill in the details with your imagination.
Really like your render, by the way! Great job.
That would actually be quite cool I guess

I think the ghost was a blender user but is angry because his render crashed and now is trashing places. That is my take on ghost story

How did you get the shadow in the corner?
Pretty simple, look up a cowboy reference image and shape a plane to the outline. When using this type of modeling I usually make some edits to the general shape until it fits my liking. Then change the material to a black diffuse mixed with transparent until it matches the other shadows’ brightness and paste it on the wall.

Behind the wall
Pure, Cycles
Saw the first Nightmare on Elm Street for the first time actually only a few days ago so I tried to mimic the stretchy wall scene 
Quite fun to make with cloth sim and shrinkwraps (to sharpen the wrapping and have the shapes more visible). Result - not as quite as I imagined (also models of the face and the hand are super lousy) but I’m quite satisfied with it for now

Pure entry, Cycles render, 64 samples & compositor denoising in 2.90.0. Central composition (although the eyeline’s on the Rule of Thirds grid), 1x1 aspect ratio. I made the texture maps in Blender during the challenge timeframe. Thing I did for this that I’ve never done before: Modeled a Blender Logo / Community Badge, UV unwrapped so the lines of the embroidery material went the right way (which turned out to be barely visible in the final render, oh well). beau11, between candlelight and an internal glowing Suzanne I don’t think the crystal ball’s fresnel showed up much but I did my best.

I’m not sure you guys will believe me, but I’m not sure who else will. I saw that Blender 2.9 got released, which means a lot of cool new features, but it also means that I need to setup the start scene again. And also remove the cube. Or so I thought.
For some reason the cube wasn’t there. I’m not sure why, but I just went on making my entry for the weekend. But then… then I got this strange feeling that I was being watched by something. I decided to put a camera on my living room last night to see if it wasn’t something weird and…
And then I freaked out when I realized that…
The cube is stalking me
PURE
FEAR is what I felt when I saw this. I have no idea for how long the cube has been following me. Does it want revenge from being removed from my default scene? I don’t know.
I’ll try to finish my entry, but if I don’t make, you know what happened. And be prepared: it is coming for you next.
(@Helge I hope your scripts are “dumb” enough to parse this ;))
