It's a good picture...
In the run-up to National Séance, The Guardian ran an article that delved into the work of Kirigami aficionado and self-styled Paper Dandy, Marc Hagan-Guirey.
In September, a book containing twenty of Marc's designs hit bookshelves, containing a smorgasbord of sliceable schematics each inspired by a different Horror movie, tale or story... and who'd have thunk it, even Ghostwatch.
In fact, the very first example which readers can attempt to construct themselves is entitled, "The Thing under the Stairs." As you can see below, the spooky piece features a tentacular shadow escaping from a familiar-looking doorway, all of which is bathed in a striking, pinkish-blue glow. Overall, the inspiration is unmistakable - particularly, when you read the accompanying text on the opposite page...

"This was the most traumatic piece of television I'd ever seen. I was found
by my neighbour sobbing on the doorstep of our house, too afraid to be inside by
myself. If you haven't seen it, hunt down a copy because essentially this show
is the original Paranormal Activity (2007) and spawned an entire genre of 'found
footage' films."
