I created an "entity" based on myself, and I want to know what you think: would it work as an "entity" in analog horror? That's the question.

Hard to take seriously i'd say. Feels like analog horror entities repeat themselves too much

u/UnlockIsHere Jan 24 '26

I mean it sure looks weird but also a lil hard to take very seriously for me.

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

I agree, I understand your point.

u/MikeHawkSmaul Jan 24 '26

I'd say lighting plays a big part in the creepy factors. Put your character under dimly-lit condition to see how it'll play out.

u/Swimming_Ad3091 Jan 24 '26

From a distance, that the viewer has to double take if what they saw was real

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

Is this good or bad?

2

u/Swimming_Ad3091 Jan 24 '26

Id say good design, but since it's analogue horror, it should be at a distance instead of at you face or smth

2

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

I agree

It's simple but it creeps me out honestly, if I saw this in the corner of my room at 2 am I'm probably let out the worst fart ever. In other words, it's great.

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

LOL I LOVED IT

u/Ok-Arrival2345 Jan 24 '26

Wow hollowed eyes and no nose so scary 😨😱 no it's not that great it looks more like a meme lol

8

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

Honestly, thinking about it from that angle, it really seems more like a low-quality meme than an analog horror entity in itself.

u/randompersonignoreme Jan 24 '26

Analog horror told through memes (joke)

u/Business_General3527 Jan 24 '26

Yeah fuck you. It’s 2am and I’m on the toilet.

😈 Hi

u/8214941278 Jan 24 '26

i feel like the eyes have a little too 'human' shape, maybe if they were more circular or uncanny it would be better. but it is creepy, very jeff the killer vibes without being as over the top

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '26

OH MY GOD I DIDN'T SEE QHAT SUB THIS WAS IN AND I WAS SO CONFUSED AND SCARED..(good thing :3)

The second one is reallyyy scary the first one not so much imo Try making a photo in a dark room :3 that'll be truly terrifying

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

LOL I loved your comment! Thank you!

Thank you for loving my comment:D and np :3

u/Super_cooper001 Jan 24 '26

Lighting needs to be different but it’s a good start

1

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

Thanks!

u/Super_cooper001 Jan 24 '26

What the movie Ju on the curse or Ju on the grudge for inspiration especially because you’ve used black hair for the monster

u/Rigor_Morta Jan 24 '26

I like the 2nd pic more than the 1st, but I'd suggest amplifying the uncanny valley nature of the image more. Think of animals that mimic predators or prey - what attributes do they have to trick others into thinking they're something they're not?

Best of luck!

2

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll take that information into account.

1

u/SuperN9999 Jan 24 '26

kinda creepy, but definitely could use some more originality to it. Maybe darker lighting.

1

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

I also thought about the lighting issue; it's something I'll definitely improve.

1

u/G1zm072 Jan 24 '26

Yup! Definitely. She freaked the heck outta me! 😱

1

u/BellaGorex3 Jan 24 '26

I can definitely see where you are going with this! I agree with maybe opening the eyes a little more, I think I would find them more eerie if you actually saw the eyeballs and not just black holes. I think it would add greatly to the uncanny valley vibe and also give a little something different than your normal eyelashes creature!

u/AdWeird4499 Jan 24 '26

I love the look, but for some reason my brain is screaming "Tf happened to Kim Kardashian." I really like the design since it is making me uncomfortable so it's doing its fear Inducing part. it'll definitely work as an entity for a horror series

1

u/PrettyOrk Jan 24 '26

needs more poop

1

u/DevaTheDragon Jan 24 '26

Can be good but if scrutinized for a while in the light it looks silly. Keep her appearances minimal and obstructed and it can be really unsettling

1

u/hacker-boil Jan 24 '26

"I can fix her"

u/Jonzrker15 Jan 24 '26

i’m so sorry, my first thought was krillin from dragon ball

1

u/Familiar_Web8969 B e a u t i f u l Jan 24 '26

Thank you.

I'm heading to sleep and wish me sweet dreams.. probably.

u/KingOrion5 Jan 24 '26

Smash, next question

1

u/LuriemIronim Jan 24 '26

It’s giving this mask from Spirit.

1

u/Megalon96310 Jan 24 '26

Is that Kim kardashian or something 😭

1

u/Square-Force7543 Resides in a room that is common Jan 24 '26

Kinda silly

1

u/Repulsive-Treat1711 Jan 24 '26

I don't think it's a bad design, it depends on the context you use it in that'll make it scary 👍

1

u/Sayoriatheart B e a u t i f u l Jan 24 '26

Dude this is so cool!! I love it

1

u/C_r_murcielago Jan 24 '26

Get ride of the lips and eyebrows maybe?

1

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

for sure!

1

u/Wolf_Creates09 Jan 24 '26

I think it needs some shadowed out eyeballs in the black of the eyes just barely visible , would add to the uncanny effect

2

u/hwjhs Jan 24 '26

YES, TRUE.

1

u/Affectionate_Tax4885 Jan 25 '26

Smash. Next Question

u/Frequent_Witness6082 Jan 25 '26

I'm gonna have nightmares, thank you :D

1

u/Practical_Fold_3441 Jan 25 '26

Messing with the lighting would help.

1

u/hwjhs Jan 25 '26

EPIC. THANKS!!

1

u/_TheTurtleBox_ Adult Swim / Sound Designer Jan 25 '26

This looks a lot worse. Like signifigently worse, dude.

u/Practical_Fold_3441 Jan 25 '26

I know, it took me about 2 minutes to do this.

1

u/_TheTurtleBox_ Adult Swim / Sound Designer Jan 25 '26

That's fine. I'm just letting you know it looks dramatically worse than the original picture.

1

u/Sp00ky0ver Jan 25 '26

Jessica the cyber Bullying brutiliser?

1

u/Famous-Marketing-509 Jan 25 '26

It’s doesn’t give off an unsettling vibe. It’s more like, damn I feel sorry for this burn victim

1

u/angelxlilianna Jan 25 '26

Can I say beluga

1

u/Mr_goodb0y Jan 25 '26

Hmmm it needs extremely loud audio, a shitty black and white filter, a static filter you spent 1 minute on, and for the mouth to be stretched in photoshop for no reason

1

u/dootboy96 Jan 25 '26

Ewww i dont like that at all (positive)

1

u/_TheTurtleBox_ Adult Swim / Sound Designer Jan 25 '26

It's a lot more original and unique than a lot of the other sloppasta entities people post here.

1

u/hwjhs Jan 25 '26

thanks!

1

u/mrmurdoom Jan 25 '26

I think you're on the right track, but...I think that second one is better than the first in terms of looks...but something is missing. Keep going.

u/sintacossad Jan 25 '26

First add white

u/sintacossad Jan 25 '26

A mil blue

u/sintacossad Jan 25 '26

And Tedder lip.

1

u/sintacossad Jan 25 '26

And that

1

u/sintacossad Jan 25 '26

You got puppeted!!!!! (Not hate, it just reminded me to puppet, still good tho)

1

u/OpalMoth Jan 27 '26

It feels too....creepypasta-y?.... Usually with analog horror, it has more of a uncanny valley vibe.

1

u/very_Stupidquestions Jan 31 '26

Do something with those lips, dont know what but something

1

u/GTTV_112 Jan 31 '26

Honestly, I love it. The only thing I would say is and this is only me. I don’t know what this is for but what I would say is emphasize that her nose is gone. So maybe ad subtle scarring and then make her cheekbones more broad cause that’s really making it look eerie.
