A suspenseful illustration of a scared woman reaching for a red button under a glass dome, flanked by two tense men in a dimly lit room.

Create a suspenseful illustration inspired by Richard Matheson’s short story Button, Button. Show three characters: Norma — a woman in her 30s, with curious yet anxious eyes, reaching toward a small wooden box with a button under a glass dome. Arthur — her husband, standing nearby, looking tense and disapproving. Mr. Steward — a mysterious man in a dark suit, neatly dressed, calmly presenting the box. Set the scene in a dimly lit apartment or kitchen, with moody shadows and light shining on the button. The background should be shaded in deep blues and grays to add suspense and unease. The overall tone should feel eerie, psychological, and tense. See more
