A gray, foggy night. A house and car are visible in the distance; beyond the car is a foggy tree line. Approaching in the foreground is a dark figure holding a flashlight. Only one window, in the top right of the house, is lit. Someone is expecting someone.

A scene at night. Two tall, thin towers rise out of the fog. Connecting them is a horizontal bridge with iron latticework beneath it. At the top of each tower is a glowing yellow light. A person stands on the bridge. Above, in the sky, is a glowing full moon. The bridge looks like an uppercase letter H. This is a primarily blue drawing with accents of fluorescent green for the fog.

A spooky, abandoned castle looms out of the fog on a dim evening. Visible is a tall, wide tower the size and shape of an apartment building, with a crenellated top, and—in front of it—a smaller wing with a sloped roof and a round window at the top. Behind it is a forest. Standing in front of the castle is a small figure holding a glowing yellow lantern. The figure appears to be standing in a low layer of fog. At the top of the tower, looking back, is another figure: a glowing white one. The background is mostly a dull blue with hints of green and yellow. The drawing is shades of dark blue.

A grassy hill. At the top of the hill is a metal tower with a loudspeaker at the top. At the base of the tower is a small earthwork platform with a microphone on it, perhaps the microphone that controls the loudspeaker. No one is standing at the microphone. A path leads through the grass to the microphone platform. There are signs of fog on the ground. In the background looms a huge figure, blurry with fog, as tall as the tower itself. It is slightly stooped, head tilted down, looking at the microphone platform. Its facial features are hard to discern, but something about them is unsettlingly skeletal.

The stump of a tree rises from fog. This is a relatively tall stump, maybe a quarter or third the height of the original tree. On top of the stump sits a large, roundish bird with an owl-like face, hunched into its wings. Sticking out from one side of the stump is a small clawlike hand, holding a large blue egg. Above is a hazy sun.

A mailbox post rises up from a ground covered by thick fog. Placed on the arm of the post where the mailbox would be is a small house-shaped box that does indeed resemble a mailbox. The door on the front is closed. There are suggestions that it is no ordinary mailbox, however, like the glowing, circular window on the side, and the large bell hanging over the door of the mailbox. Below the mailbox, nearly engulfed by the fog, stands a small figure. The size of the figure compared to the mailbox post suggesting that this post is as tall as a multi-story building. The figure is reaching up and grasping a string that dangles from the bell, as though ringing the bell to alert whoever's living inside the mailbox that they have a visitor.

A rickety tower: a shack on top of tall scaffolding that looks like something that might hold up a water tower. The shack has a sloped roof and sits on a platform surrounded by guardrails. It's a dim, foggy day; the fog hangs so heavy in the air that it's hard to tell whether it's day or night. On the side of the platform is an area light casting a dim beam. Standing on top of the shack is a person aiming a flashlight towards the sky. The surrounding area is filled with weeds. The overall effect is that of a mostly abandoned guard tower occupied by one person.

A tall sign—the size of a two-story building—out in the middle of nowhere with "diner" written on it. Some of the letters are dim, neon bulbs; others aren't lit at all. Also affixed to the sign pole is a street light, casting a dull light. The atmosphere seems to be a wet, foggy day. A figure stands under the street light, perhaps waiting for someone. Another figure approaches through the fog. Off in the distance is a dim, barely visible tree line, suggesting a forest.
