The camera sits low and tips into a dutch angle, looking up so the whole Halloween tabletop reads as a looming stage. Centered on top of a big carved jack-o'-lantern sits a black cat draped in a white sheet ghost costume: the sheet falls over its head and shoulders with two ragged eye holes, the cat's amber eyes glinting through and its ears tenting the fabric at the corners; one white-sheeted paw rests on the pumpkin's stem, the other hangs off the pumpkin's lip, its tail curling out from under the hem. The pumpkin's jagged triangular eyes and zigzag mouth glow from a candle inside, throwing warm orange light upward onto the cat's sheet and casting a long shadow across the table. Above, a small brown bat hangs upside down from a bare twig, wings folded, one eye open and looking down at the cat. To the right, a bulging spider crouches at the center of a wide silk web strung between the pumpkin's stem and a nearby twig, the silk catching the candlelight in thin bright lines. On the tabletop to the left, a glossy brown cockroach scuttles along the wood grain, antennae forward. Behind them, an old beige computer tower and CRT monitor sit on the table, the screen dark. The whole scene is lit only by the jack-o'-lantern's candle and a sliver of cold blue moonlight from the upper left, so the computer and background fall into deep shadow. Black, burnt orange and cold blue dominate, with the white sheet and pale silk as the brightest points. A bold hand-lettered banner taped across the top of the CRT monitor reads "happy halloween" in orange letters on black. Playful, cozy-spooky.
