Art style: Tim Burton-inspired.
A lopsided, decrepit timber house on a foggy moonlit hill, its warped windows dark and its sagging roof crooked, surrounded by dry twisted plants and a leaning wooden gate. Low drifting ground fog curls around the base. In the foreground on screen-right, three nervous neighbours cluster at the gate, hunched together whispering, one pointing a trembling hand toward the house. Cold silver-blue moonlight rims the crooked silhouette; the house looms in the midground. Mood: eerie storybook, cursed and shunned, darkly whimsical rather than frightening. Palette: desaturated blues, greys and sickly muted greens. Wide establishing shot from a low angle.
