Thick fog rolls through an ancient hillside graveyard at dusk, the camera drifting low between tilting headstones as a distant bell tolls though no church stands nearby. Dead leaves skitter across cracked marble, wrought-iron fences groan in the wind, and the fog parts to reveal a fresh grave with disturbed earth, a single black rose laid upon it. The camera pushes closer as the soil begins to shift, the bell tolling louder, faster, and a pale hand breaks the surface, fingers clawing at the rose's thorns. Mist coils upward like breath, the headstones seem to lean inward, and every candle left by mourners gutters out simultaneously. The camera pulls back rapidly as the fog swallows the grave whole, the bell's final toll hanging in the air. Gothic dread, desaturated twilight palette, creeping fog effects, photorealistic, 24fps.
