A terrified young boy runs through a fog-covered orchard, his breath ragged and his wide eyes filled with panic. Behind him looms a monstrous, decaying apple, its massive, rotting body cracked open to reveal dark, festering flesh within. The creature’s glowing red eyes, shaped like apple seeds, burn with malevolence as it hunts its prey. Its jagged, bark-like teeth drip with thick, toxic black sap, while a twisted, thorny stem juts from its head like a demonic horn. Its gnarled branch-like limbs stretch outward, lined with razor-sharp thorns, eager to tear apart anything in its path. Long, writhing roots extend from the base of its body, slithering across the ground like tentacles, reaching hungrily for the fleeing child’s legs. They twist and coil, trying to ensnare him, dragging him toward the monstrous abyss. The boy screams, but his voice is swallowed by the eerie, echoing screech of the apple beast. The sound ripples through the orchard, causing the trees to wither and their leaves to crumble into ash. Around him, the once-ordinary trees begin to shift—branches twisting like grasping fingers, their trunks warping into grotesque, contorted faces that watch in silent, sinister anticipation. Above, the blood-red moon casts an ominous glow over the cursed land, offering no warmth, only despair. There is no escape—only darkness creeping closer and the relentless monster drawing near.
