Design Concept
A shadowy, silhouetted figure of a man is positioned in the foreground, watching a woman from a distance, her figure partially backlit with soft red light. A dark, decaying skull is subtly embedded into the background texture, visible if looked closely. Thin, broken red lines slightly frame the edges, resembling cracked glass or blood trails. The overall blend of black and red tones creates an ominous and intense atmosphere.
The book title "Haunting Adeline" is written in a bold, serif font with a distressed texture, in blood-red color. The author’s name, "H.D. Carlton," is placed smaller and more understated, in thin sans-serif white font positioned toward the bottom.
The title dominates the upper half of the page, centered and balanced, while the silhouetted stalker figure stays subtly in the lower right corner as if blending into the shadows. The skull texture fades into the blackness while framing the sides of the cover. The woman's glowing figure is faint and positioned more towards the center-left. The author name is presented in the bottom right.
This design effectively captures the dual emotions of romance and danger through its primary use of black and red tones—a classic hallmark of dark romance. The shadowed stalker figure and glowing red-lit woman emphasize obsession and stalking, adding psychological intensity to the visuals. The distressed serif font for the title, paired with the clean sans-serif font for the author's name, creates a contrast that brings a haunting yet professional aesthetic. The subtle inclusion of a skull adds to the dark vibe, while not being overly graphic, allowing for intrigue without overwhelming the romance element. Spot-gloss accents on the skull and the title enhance the tactile and visual experience, drawing the eye and highlighting the dark romance theme effectively.
