Haunting illustration of three young people's portraits, fragmented and torn like an old photo on a dark, eerie background.

“A haunting psychological horror book cover illustration. In the foreground, a large torn poster of a young woman in her early twenties with shoulder-length red hair, green eyes, and freckles (Abi). Only her head and shoulders are shown, like a portrait — average-looking but vulnerable. The poster is ripped open at the center, and behind the tear is a fragmented old high school photograph: a handsome teenage boy with short brown hair and blue eyes (Tyler, age 17–18) stands with his arm around a blonde teenage girl with braided hair and blue eyes (Hailey, age 17–18). The photo itself is split down the middle, separating the two of them. The torn paper edges curl outward, jagged and unsettling, as if clawed open. Around it, shadows swirl like smoke, blurring the boundary between dream and reality. The mood is eerie, intimate, and unsettling—evoking fractured identity, obsession, and ghostly intrusion. Colors are muted and cold: faded reds, pale skin, washed-out blues, and shadowy blacks. No text, no lettering, only the imagery.” See more
