My horror still is slightly blurred and you can only just make out a black, shadowed figure in the centre, next to the banister. The blurred effect on the image creates a sense of delirium; nothing is as what it seems. The colours are dark and gloomy, almost depressing and signify melancholy and sadness. These are all things you find in a horror.
The cloaked figure is what really makes this a horror though because you can't quite make it out, it is elusive and therefore unpredictable. This makes it disconcerting and will make the viewer feel uneasy. This shot could easily be from a part in a film where someone has become dazed, the audience is watching through the eyes of the protagonist, and in the confusion they see a foreboding silhouette which cannot quite be grasped and therefore cannot quite be escaped.
