A night scene in rural Illinois, 1973, depicting the legendary cryptid known as the Enfield Horror — a grotesque, pale creature with three legs, short arms ending in clawed hands, and glowing red eyes that reflect in the darkness. Its skin appears slick and rubbery, stretched over a gaunt frame, giving it a biomechanical and unsettlingly alien look. The creature crouches on the edge of a shadowy cornfield, illuminated by a lone flickering porch light in the distance. The atmosphere is heavy with fog and unease, blending Gothic horror mood with midwestern small-town Americana. Render in a mix of Junji Ito’s surreal horror linework and Zdzisław Beksiński’s nightmarish surrealism, with cinematic lighting inspired by 1970s horror films.
