Default From Normal to Scary

I took this photo of two dead trees and had an idea of a making a scary looking night image. So i took this boring dull photo and played around with the levels and curves in photo shop and got this result! Please let me know what you think.

Here's the before.

And here's the after.

Love the silhouettes in the after shot. Seems like too much black in the foreground, though.
