Musée Grevin - a ghost?


At Musée Grevin, this figure peeking from behind the velvet curtains
seemed just spooky enough for our Halloween

I am not sure who inspired this wax figure.  It is a wax figure, right?

    Eh bien ma chère Genie, j'espère sincèrement que c'est une figure de cire! Dans le cas contraire, oh, la la! Joyeuse fête d'Halloween! Veronique

    Très spooky! I certainly hope he is wax; otherwise, he needs to go see a good orthodontist. Happy Halloween!

    I love this! And the reflections we see make it even more scary - or perhaps they are not reflections and it's ectoplasm? Mind all those ghosties and ghoulies tonight, Genie...

    Absolutely spooky enough for a Halloween post. And if he isn't a wax figure . . . then it's even spookier!

    Ooh, it is soooo eerie! Halloween always scares me. I don't like Halloween movies or going into haunted houses either!

    Oh poo, I guess I am a baby! LOL

    Paul, I have seen photos of you, and this creepy fellow could not be Paris Paul!

    It has been a busy Halloween with lots of little ghosts and goblins. There is enough sugar in my neighborhood to put every man, woman and child into a diabetic coma. I would not want to be a school teacher tomorrow as there are going to be more than a few kids who have overdosed on the Halloween candy!

    Thank you for your comments. This "wax" figure still gives me the creeps and a shiver!

    Bises,
    Genie
