Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A pitch-black background with a foggy mountainous terrain highlighting a sinister, imposing mansion perched atop. The mansion’s windows faintly glow with an eerie yellow light, giving an illusion of life inside. Jagged iron gates dominate the foreground, rusted and twisted, with the three shadowy figures standing outside the gates. The tall man, his fiancé, and the boy are depicted through shadowy silhouettes shrouded in mist. An elderly man stands within the inner gates of the mansion with a faint ghostly glare on him. Dry, overgrown grass and barren, claw-like tree branches frame the horrifying scene. Subtle streaks of dripping "rain" run along the edges of the cover, blending into the fog to amplify the eeriness.

Design Typography:

The book title "MANSION OF CORPSES" is written in a dripping blood-red font, with added horror typography effects. The word "CORPSES" contains a haunting visual—typography that incorporates dismembered, decayed corpses subtly blended into the letters. The author’s name, "Daniyah Ahmed," is placed at the bottom in a delicate yet chilling serif font in off-white.

Design Layout:

The title is positioned prominently at the top-center, stretching wide across the cover, with the dripping blood effect seeping downwards. The mansion and foggy mountain act as the centerpiece of the design. The iron gates and shadowy figures dominate the lower third of the cover, with layers of mist overlapping sections of the text and imagery. The author’s name is seamlessly embedded at the bottom-middle of the design, just above a weathered texture effect.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition leverages effective elements of creepiness and suspense by integrating a dark, foggy atmospheric setting that aligns perfectly with the thriller genre. The silhouette-only depiction of characters adds anonymity and intrigue, keeping the reader guessing about their identities while enhancing the darkness of the story’s tone. The typography is intricately designed to mirror the horror theme, with the blood-dripping effect and the corpse-like design of the word "CORPSES" leaving a haunting impression. The layout guides the reader’s eye across the gothic mansion, unsettling trees, and iron gates, perfect for capturing the suspenseful essence of the narrative. The material choices of high-gloss lamination with spot-matte and red foil stamping make the cover visually striking and tactilely engaging, ensuring both the appearance and physical experience provide a spine-chilling, unforgettable first impression.
