Halloween / Samhain 2016
Exhausted and lost, the lonely traveller stumbles through the deep forest. Spying a light peaking through the trees, they head gladly towards it. A cottage, ramshackle and overgrown, the door rotting on its hinges but light shines from the window. They knock — once, twice, three times. No answer. Seeking respite they enter anyway — the drab single room is deserted but a single candle burns by the window. Their eye is drawn by the strange artefacts under the window. Moving nearer, drawn by an unstoppable compulsion, a sudden movement outside the window provokes screams and screams of terror before the horror outside silences them forever... Technical: mostly a single shot, with only the smoke composited in, due to the 4 second exposure. The moon and figure are both shot as part of the scene with the moon being lit by a gelled flash and the figure light-painted with a led torch, giving it the greenish hue.
