Sometimes we see a photograph is just so eerie that we can’t take our eyes off it. They may not be depicting anything too dramatic, nothing like the photography that comes from a war correspondent perhaps. Maybe it’s from everyday life, but it’s no less stunning. Here are some that come out of Michigan for you to marvel.
- Frankenstein standing guard at this small shelter in Manton, Mich.

- The long-gone teddy bear house at the Heidelberg Project.

- An abandoned church in Detroit.

- Bridge in Port Huron.
gerrybuckel/Flickr This bridge connects Michigan to Canada. Freaky thing about the fog, it makes it look like there really is no connection in the middle.
- A chandelier in the abandoned Vanity Ballroom in Detroit.
Timothy Neesam/Flickr In its heyday, this ballroom served as the swanky venue for such acts as Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman and Red Nichols. Now in ruins, it architectural detail is still a marvel to behold.
- Ice over the Detroit River.
Mike/Flickr It looks almost thick enough to skate on… Almost.
- Lighthouse in South Haven
Tom Gill/Flickr The way the wind whips the ice into perfect formation is truly arresting to look at.
- Mesabi Miner in Marquette.
Dan Wiedbrauk/Flickr This gargantuan, 1,006-foot long bulk carrier was quite eerie for Flickr user Dan Wiedbrauk to behold as it backed onto a dock in Marquette.
- The interior of Michigan Central Station.
Shane Gorski/Flickr This ghostly, iconic structure has been secured for years and years. But that hasn’t stopped shutterbugs like Flickr user Shane Gorski from entering and collecting some captivating shots.
- Clouds over Miner’s Beach at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
