This is cool. I like the percussion but that guitar is what really makes this track. Good work!!

That's a Ghost Story alright! Haunted, eerie, disquieting, elements of times gone by. That guitar melody is a great "main character" -- strikes me as either the spirit of the ghost haunting and searching for a way out, or the paranormal explorer searching for the ghost. Played it twice. Nice work!

Haunting music for a ghost that's particularly large and grumpy. Fantastic mood. Well done

Yeah great , really creepy. Well done I have goosebumps

Haha, the devil went down to Georgia and formed a ghoulish band...Nice work. Cheers

Very ghostly, spooky sounds. Maybe good to play on Halloween when all the spooks show up for a treat

Thanks for listening and your kind comments. I live at the end of a dead end road and even the ghosts don't come on Halloween.

That is trippy and sinister. Your title really captures that ghost story mood. I'm not sure how you achieved this, but it's super cool! The guitar is twisted in a good way, and the organ sound is perfection.

This gives me serious credit roll vibes at the end of a horror film.awesome

Whoa! This is wonderfully spooky and devilishly dark with the chord choices, scale and reverb buzzy and swirly sounds. Fabulous phrasing and pacing - I’m glad I’m in a room with bright lights and I didn’t play this at bedtime!

Wow! Just wow! Thanks so much for participating! I need to write an instrumental sometime.
