DAY 18

First up is Taka-san!
Ominous, unsettling, and eerie — this shot checks all three boxes. Instinct says it's a place to avoid, yet curiosity demands answers: why have so many crows gathered there? There's no concrete threat visible at first glance, but the tension of something lurking in that place is what turns this into a shot of pure psychological fear.😨

Next is Love-Aokiida-san!
A handprint pressed into the wall. Drag marks on the floor that look disturbingly like blood. Even the sign in the background has been splattered. Was the person who left that print taken through the open door? The high-contrast black and white brings every desperate detail into sharp relief — a single frame that captures a final, terrifying struggle.😱

Next is EN-family_𝕘𝕥𝟟𝟟-san!
This one looks just like a movie poster — and the title Mad Wagon feels like a perfect fit. The story it inspired: a Volkswagen watches its beloved owner get killed by gangsters right in front of it, and sets out for revenge. Almost certainly not the intent behind this shot, but that's exactly the kind of fierce, vengeful grudge this image radiates — one deeply unsettling frame.💥🚗😨

Next is Misoshiru Gohan-san!
A BT reaching out to drag the living into its world, while Sam sprints past with everything he has. The umbilical cord tracing its circle in the air only deepens the dread. The ruined structure on the far left stands like a cross driven into the earth, and the tattered cloth drifting in the wind adds a quiet sadness beneath all the fear. A single frame that holds both terror and melancholy at once.🥺

Next is N2-san!
When danger becomes unavoidable, what goes through a person's mind? Those wide-open eyes are fixed on something just out of sight. The source of the fear is never revealed. And yet — this angle instantly recalled the recent theme "Out of Frame." The way this moment was captured, leaving the threat unseen, is what makes it so compelling.🫣

This is where the real brilliance stood out this round! 🏆

On a personal note — there's been some genuine horror in daily life lately. The PS5 disc drive has started making a terrible clunking noise. It can barely spit discs out, won't take them in without a firm push, and sometimes refuses to read them at all. The drive feels like it's slowly dying, and it's honestly terrifying. This is Fuz, hoping to replace it before it completely gives out!
