The buildup was good but I felt that the shadow entity lost some of its eerie effect when it was shown up close. I think it would be better if you find a different ending that is still suspenseful, like a shadow in reflection. Anyway, keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing more.
One day in late August of 59, I (was 12 years old) I went very picking with my mother and her friend and her daughter.. As was typical in that place, we had bought food, and we made a fire and “boiled up. We were 😂sitting down eating, when the other lady started talking about the fairies. I listened, fascinated. She started talking about how the fairies took children and how there was this one child in the place that nobody ever saw because the family kept him hidden. He actually wasn’t the child because the fairies had taken the real child and replaced him with, this fairy child. I was not at the age of discretion, and knew nothing about keeping my mouth shut so I started to laugh, and she said, what are you laughing at Missie? I said that nobody believes in fairies. There is no such thing! She got absolutely furious, and grew herself up to her full height of five foot two, glared at me and shouted “Miss know it all. Well, I can tell you people a lot more educated than you believe in fairies .You are just a stupid child! I was in the doghouse, but sufficient to say, I still didn’t believe in fairies. She was never really friendly with mom again. By the way, this wasn’t a isolated village somewhere the outskirts and outlying areas of Newfoundland this was a small town yes but it was like the suburbs of a much larger town and it was within 20 miles of St. John’s.
That's a wonderful story, thank you for sharing! I find Newfoundland's fairy folklore very fascinating...the concept where they swap a human baby for one of their own is called changelings, and it's so interesting to realize that a large portion of the population held these beliefs, and some still do...
I'm the tallest lepacaun in the world now..My cousin mad Sweeney was but I am now the Mad Tom of bedlam..if you sit on a rock wall leave me some honey bread and coin and if you have a shite in woods put a rock on it or the Chieftain who ran from a fight shall take your children in flight
Creepy effects! The actor did great, even when just standing there staring.....he was really scary! A shapeshifting demon, wow. It looked believable at all times...& I am so glad you actually showed most of the demon. Many short-horrors don't show anything but *blurs* or flashes. Good work on this. Like others here, I'd be excited to see a longer version of it.
2:00 "Can I have a look anyway?" Um, NO! Never let someone in who says things like that! Whether they be human or......otherwise, say No! At least she was smart there. Now, back to the film....:)
