Design Elements and Imagery
The design, directly lifted from the promotional artwork, typically features a chilling and evocative scene. Key elements often include a depiction of the imposing Collinwood mansion, the central location of the film's events. The architecture, rendered in shades of grey and shadow, immediately establishes a mood of foreboding and isolation.
