Most of us, when asked to think of something frightening, immediately picture scenes from horror movies. Trees, however, rarely come to mind. Yet, these ancient organisms have their own unique personalities. Some trees appear welcoming and full of life, while others seem dull or unremarkable. Occasionally, though, certain trees exude such an eerie presence that they captivate anyone who comes across them.

The Burmis Tree
Located in Alberta, Canada, the Burmis Tree is a hauntingly beautiful sight. A limber pine that stood for centuries, it died in the 1970s at the astonishing age of 600 to 750 years old. Yet, instead of collapsing, it remained standing in its skeletal form for another two decades, creating a striking contrast against the towering Canadian Rockies. When it finally fell in 1998, the local community refused to let it go and secured it in place with stainless steel supports, ensuring its ghostly presence would remain part of the landscape.
