It does have a nice creepy look about it. Did you paint with flash?

Thanks everyone for the comments and the faves. I remember trying to get a good shot of this house to really capture the mood of this place. It was more challenging than I had anticipated. I tried long exposure shots, I tried using the flash, I even tried during the day but nothing really truly captured it.
I was sorting through my photos last night and I tried a different technique with one of the photos that I took at night with the flash. Its a pseudo HDR. I took 1 jpeg and changed the exposures and blended them with photomatix.

Ty Backroad drifter. yes it is actually on the left just passed the sign making shop! You should check it out sometime!
Also, I think the creepiness intensifies with this photo b/c it was at night. This house is very easy to miss!
