The cover features a haunting scene where the full moon is transitioning to set, casting an eerie glow over a tranquil lake. Dominating the sky is a spectral partial face of a girl, the focus on her blood-red eyes and cascading black hair. The dramatic contrast between the serene lake and the unsettling gaze captures the reader instantly.
The book title "A Story To Tell" is set in an ominous serif font, with elongated and sharp edges to inject tension, placed below the girl's eyes for a dramatic impact. Below the title, the author's name "Lakayla M. Finley" is in a clean, contrasting sans-serif font to ensure clarity and maintain focus.
The top half of the cover is consumed by the girl's partial face, with her red eyes aligning at the top center. The full moon subtly illuminates the left corner. The lake occupies the lower portion, with rippling reflections. The title is centrally placed above the lake, while the author’s name is positioned at the bottom, beneath the title.
This cover plays on contrasts to evoke the sense of dread typical of the horror genre. The partial face, particularly accentuating the red eyes, injects a human yet supernatural element to the sky, inviting intrigue. The lake and the setting sun's full moon symbolize the calm before the horror unfolds, drawing the reader into a tense experience before opening the book. The use of matte paper not only supports a sophisticated and smooth finish but ensures the dark tones remain rich, accentuating the mysterious and foreboding atmosphere essential to horror storytelling.
