A dark gothic horror book cover featuring a cracked porcelain mask with empty eyes, a shadowy hooded figure, and the title BIND at the top.

I want a haunting and atmospheric horror book cover centered around the antagonist BIND’s mask. The mask is made of cracked porcelain with rough stitching of black threads holding it together. The stitching should look like delicate spiderwebs or filigree cords — fragile yet menacing. Some threads should be fraying or unraveling, symbolizing the tension and unraveling mystery in the story. Behind or slightly above the mask, a shadowy figure of BIND should appear — tall, ominous, partly hidden in mist and darkness. BIND wears tattered clothes wrapped in threads or cords. The figure should feel foreboding but not fully revealed, keeping mystery alive. The background should be misty and dark, using a muted cold palette: blacks, grays, faded blues, and with subtle red accents (such as a bloodstain on a thread or a hint in the background). Additionally, thin black threads should weave subtly throughout the composition, visually linking the mask to a blurred sketchbook page somewhere in the image’s corner — hinting at the protagonist Iris’s role and the story’s thematic focus on threads, binding, and unraveling. The overall tone must evoke dread, suspense, and melancholy — a perfect mix of slasher horror and dark mystery. See more
