Hard to follow those, awesome cards!

Here’s an interesting one. I think its upside down and inverted Doc White Portrait, but hard to be sure

I think a lot of these Leaf Dom Dimaggio cards look a little like this, but this one struck me as sinister (a member posted this card on another thread). Here is your bug-eyed Dom.

Of course there is always Caspar, the upraised arms unfriendly E94 McGraw ghost, or whatever the heck this is.

Bryan, I originally thought the same, but I’ve since eliminated Boss as a possibility as his portrait is just too big and it doesn’t fit. I’m 98% sure it’s Doc White portrait, inverted

Looking like one of those portraits in a haunted house where the eyes follow you.

That E95 'painting' of Willis fits in well with the scenery of the room...could easily be in the Haunted Mansion in Disneyland.

Willis might have also been a vampire, as it appears there is blood coating his lower lip.

There are indeed happy ghouls, and ghouls can be Gygli too.

You do use a lot of four letter words.

And something about “his own wet sheet backside” sounds perverse.
