Ghosts Are Unsettling - Tumblr Posts

OK SO, I'm not the biggest DP guy, BUT madoka lives in my head rent free and this idea for the ghosts is just BRILLIANT on so many levels I had to draw at least one ghost like it.

So I did Ember! I chose her for 2 reasons, 1 her colors are good, 2 her story fits that of the madoka witches scarily well.

I love this idea so much I might redraw some DP screenshots with the ghosts like this, Pls Tell me what you think!

If ya’ll know Madoka Magica you will understand how beautiful and haunting the art of the witches that show up on screen are.

It’s gorgeous.

That unsettling feeling of seeing something beyond yourself, beyond your sense of consciousness and knowing that this could very well be your grave.

It’s a labyrinth of feelings, of misery, of regret, and wanting that traps its victims in a forever.

You know what else is unsettling?

Death.

Death and ghosts and everything beyond it.

So imagine with me then, that the Infinite Realms and those ecto-born and ecto-contaminated don’t see the ghosts the same way.

Amity Park and its residents see the invading ghosts as close to their real form in life as they are in death.

Those not touched by the Infinite?

They see them the same way as witches. Unnatural creatures that unsettles the mind and environment to allow the ghosts access to the living world.

Maybe that’s why Maddie and Jack Fenton do not see ghosts as sentient things. They have seen them as humans see them, things filled with misery and pain, stealing from those too foolish to wander in the Ghosts domain.

The GIW are much the same, seeing the ghosts as the ‘witches’ they are, not what they were.

Danny doesn’t realize how unsettling he truly is, no one in Amity Park baring the Fenton parents and the GIW do.

Not until he is summoned on his first official Kingly summon, unaware of the looming gaping horror that stood staring back down at the humans that lived outside of Amity Park.
