This prompt was easy: I took a photo of the teeth of one of my dad's huskies and then zoomed in and set it as a monochrome bitmap – a technique I've used for title screens of some of my games:
It doesn't show the bigger picture (a peaceful doggy lying on the grass and being bothered by me prodding its lips). Instead it give you a glimpse of something primal that simply reads "predator!" to your instincts, I hope.
Okay so I misread this prompt as "desert". But I like the picture and so I'm keeping it. It was made by feeding the first sentence of The Dark Tower into Craiyon:
I like how it's definetly a gunslinger but the funkyness of the AI makes it disturbing once you take a closer look. Spooky and thus fitting with Witchtober.
This one is from a memory of pure terror I have: While at university I had a summer-job cleaning up and looking after a large greenhouse on a hospital grounds on weekends. The place was used to for garden therapy during the week but on weekends the cat and I were alone there. One day I had the task to clean all tables in the room for group works. I flipped the tables over and underneath them there was a huge amount of spider webbing and spiders. I took a broom to it. Then the spiders did a counter-attack:
Medium is a pencil-scribble on paper. I ran a pure b/w filter over it by turning it into a monochrome bmp for a bit. God, I hate spiders. BUT I've since gotten over the worst of my arachnophobia, being able to even capture and put outside the largest local spiders.
Let's start with the first prompt of Witchtober: "Dark". Now there is a Netflix-show of the same name. I won't go for that. I'll post a 3D-Rendering (SketchUp) I made for an entirely different thing:
The Grue. Personification for things that kill you in a video game whenever you enter total darkness. From early text-based games all the way to the modern Don't Starve it has terrorized players. This is my idea of what it would look like with (some) light shone on it.
