I'm not too fond of this image and don't expect it to do well.
An abandoned house from the Luxembourg steel fabrication company ARCELOR. I couldn't get closer because the was a fence around the territory - I had to shoot thruogh it.

The halo from excessive contrast/shadow adjustment actually works for you in this, giving it a slightly haunted look. For some strange reason I keep expecting to see Scooby-Doo cowering in a corner somewhere.
Dodge and burn is not allowed in this challenge...
Coming back to see that this was validated, good...but there is still a strange looking halo on roof...
I can't imagine letting a cool house like that run down!! It looks like it's on cool land, and could be such an awesome place! It looks great in black and white.
I like the mood that you've captured here, but the foreground is a bit too distracting, and the halo effect around the roof looks over-processed. Was that a result of the natural lighting or post-processing?
