What is a ruin? We’re running off of “You know it when you see it” at the moment. Ruins should be non-functioning structures of some age, or their function reduced to tourism and the like.

Generally speaking, specific items from a ruin should go to [email protected]

Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to [email protected]

Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to [email protected]

Definitely no ghosts in there

You know I was just thinking how it'd be really cool to buy that house, live in it, and slowly and fix it up. That's literally how horror movies start.

Go to renovate the basement, knock out a wall. "Huh, there's an extra room back here!" Weird paintings and stuff on the walls. Stone floor that fades into dirt in the back of the room along the rear wall that is far older than the rest of the house. Boom. Indian burial ground.
