Creepy Trees, Williamsburg, Virginia




These twisted, gnarled trees on Francis Street create a creepy, Halloween feel. The trunks are split and hollow but the tree is alive and well and will soon fill with foliage.

Very unique and indeed creepy.

If it wasn't for the white fence, I could almost picture something like "Sleepy Hollow". It's an interesting tree for sure!

I thought of Sleepy Hollow too. Are these trees 'normal' like this? Are they freaks of nature? Strange indeed.

It's amazing that they could flourish in this state. What kind of trees are they? Is this "normal" for them or has age just taken its toll?

Gnarly for sure! And maybe a kittle bit creepy, )

Hmmm. I meant: maybe a little bit creepy! :)

Actually, they are pretty creepy especially if you had to walk past them on a dark day or early evening. Wonder how many kiddies have thought there were ghosts there?

Very unusual tree. I'm surprised it still grows.
