Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition of this cover employs classic horror elements with the imposing imagery of a desolate castle in a dark forest under a radiant full moon. This creates an intense, atmospheric setting that speaks to both fear and imagination. The typography chosen, with its sharp Gothic lines, resonates with the horror and fantasy genres while remaining easily legible even amidst the visually rich background. The layout strategically places the central elements—the castle, moon, and text—such that they draw immediate attention, providing a dramatic visual balance. The high-gloss lamination not only adds a supernatural silver sheen reflecting the moon’s glow but also helps protect the cover, ensuring that it stands out on bookstore shelves while capturing the eerie essence of the story within.
