Digital illustration for the Aughost prompt ‘mouldy’. There is a wedge of cheese which is covered in green furry mould and a stinky aroma. A mouse couldn’t resist a nibble and has perished as its ghost floats away. At least it won’t have the need for food now.

Digital illustration for the Aughost prompt ‘obsequious’. A rather well to do butler ghost is pleased to make your acquaintance on your arrival to the afterlife.

Digital illustration for the Aughost prompt ‘silent’. Based on the film ghostbusters when they amended the library there is a stack of books. Ray (in the film) asks “listen.. you smell something?” I have named the ghost Wraith as a pun on the name Ray. Also the other ghost has let off a silent (but possibly deadly) fart** ** guff/trump/toot/boff/bottom burp

.. meanwhile over at the New York Public Library, Wraith Stanz gets a feeling…
