Just last night. Heather said that soem of them still don't have pictures. I think the pictures that are available are interesting in their own way... but it is still a defective quiz.
Looks like the only one without a picture is the Broken Heart (makes sense); everything else except the Torso has a full-on drawing, and the Torso has an icon.
(I'm not sure if it disturbs me more that I checked, or that it was so easy it was to pick the combinations for the different ghosts.)
For some reason this quiz is captivating the investigative spirit in way too many people. I'd like to figure that out sometime. I am impressed that you managed to pick them all out, I think I could probably pick out half of them. Queenie has been doing research and pasting what they all mean into people's LJ's on request pretty well.

I had help--the "Misery Loves Company" section on this page (http://13ghosts.warnerbros.com/production.html?5#) had their titles and backstories. I remembered the Torn Prince and Angry Princess, the Dire Mother and the Great Child, the Jackal and the Juggernaut[1], the First-Born Son[2], and the Withered Lover[3], but I'd forgotten about most of the others, and I don't think the Pilgrimess even made an impression.
> It's still all a little strange.
They're dead things. With extra teeth. Everybody wants one. :) --- [1] Come to think of it, most of the ghosts break down into pairs. The Hammer and the Pilgrimess are both period characters who die as a result of false accusations, and the Torso and the Bound Woman are killed for breaking their promises. Even the First-Born Son and the Withered Lover match up to some degree, in that he's a perpetual child and she never wanted her son to grow up. [2] Mostly because he reminds me so much of the kid in Sixth Sense who asks "Wanna play? Come on, I'll show you where my dad keeps his gun." [3] Fairly easy, given the fact that she had the biggest backstory of any of them.
