Cinematic horror track, 95 BPM, minor key. Opening with close-mic’ed clock ticking, then low cello drones and subtle tremolo strings. Add unsettling sound design: distant carnival music played at half-speed, creaking doors, muffled laughter. Middle section builds with a rhythmic pulse from metallic percussions, leading to a tense climax with sudden staccato brass hits. No vocals. Mood: dread, anticipation, something is about to happen.
