 There I was. In a very unfamilar place. Dark, cold, and misty and I'm not sure why but I'm scared. I feel like there is someone behind me. I look around but all I see are stone walls and a door off in the distance. I sprint for the door. All of a sudden I'm outside of what I think is Dracula's Castle. As I look up to the moon I hear howling and I start thinking the wolfman may be around too. I feel someone or somethings breathe on the back of my neck. As I turn around I hear the howling again....Then I wake up to my neighbors dog barking.

The highlights are really over exposed here. I do not get the sense of fear or danger as a nightmare would have.

The castle is awesome as is capturing the moon in the shot.

I would think Dracula's castle is dark, dangerous, and moody... this one has security lights! Sorry but way too bright and harsh to be effective.

It might have been better to have a darker image to envoke a feeling of dread, but the author's intent is clear and very effective.

The lighting is way too harsh on the side of the building.
