Vacant department store, pitch black room lit by flash light. It's tough to keep your mind from wandering and creeping yourself out here. I kept thinking something or someone was going to appear during my flash.

Now I just need to go back and get a model with their arms bound & a black hood on slumping over in the chair.

It looks like right out of the Night of the Living Dead without the zombies.

ryant35 I love that picture!

I don't think you need to use a model though. it would revel too much about the situation. Maybe try facing the chair in to the corner and putting some rope on the floor with a hood over the chair back. could add more tension than having a model in the shot.

I am Henry. NOT Hank. And certainly not a length of rope tied in a knot.

Really like this. Genuinely creepy. Made me think of the video passages in Lost Highway the david lynch film.
