Hmmmm, the figure of a man? It's dark enough that I am imagining what is in the center/top of the screen to maybe NOT be a clump of leaves. Otherwise, the dark vignette works.

Pretty scary! Subject doesn't jump out at the viewer which weakens the concept IMHO.

I'm sorry, but to me this looks like a piece of fabric hanging from a tree, not some entity that's a bad omen. I'll give you credit for the concept, though. 4.

Hmm, the PP is a bit on the rough side, but I like the idea. I can't quite tell if it's supposed to be one of those Blair Witch guys (creepy!) or even a raven or what. I'll give a 6 for the ambiance.
