A handheld, slightly shaky first-person POV shot walking down a dark, misty forest path that curves into the shadows. The camera jitters subtly, conveying unease. A few scattered autumn leaves drift slowly through the air. Behind the base of a thick, mossy tree trunk along the curve, a tiny, doll-sized gingerbread man, about 25 centimeters tall, peers out. It stands in the dim light, staring directly at the camera with a static, innocent smile, and slowly waves its small arm in a bizarre, unsettling greeting.
