#horror #horroredit #art #ginger snaps #hannibal #the exorcist #alien #alien 1979 #the blackcoat's daughter #crimson peak #ready or not #evil dead #evil dead 2 #saw #the loved ones #i’ve seen the moreau painting compared to the prom scene in carrie which tbh is more apt but i didn’t want to be a copycat #and i think it works here too #i include the exorcist mainly because that iconic shot was inspired by this series of paintings by magritte (the empire of light paintings) #same with alien #also i wish the scene where lucille is a ghost at the end of crimson peak had a clearer shot of her playing the piano from that angle #but it’s too far away to be clear so i just used the scene from the ball instead. she’s also a piano playing ghost though for context #so i think the parallel works pretty well with that in mind
