A close up shot of a light skinned Black femme ghost with flaming pink curly hair dressed in an iridescent purple gown tenderly rests her head on top of a weathered tomb stone. A luminous white string of pearls adorn her neck, standing out against an otherwise dim and gloomy cemetery as she drapes her arms lovingly around the tombstone.
