A witch with long black hair stands under a wide red hat, the crown stacked with pale skulls and one bare twig. Ruby drops hang from her ears; a black choker holds a red stone at her throat and a second stone hangs lower on a fine chain. Her dress is red satin with black lace across the bodice and off the shoulder. Her eyes are red-brown and steady, and she is not smiling.
A black cat presses in at her shoulder, orange-eyed, wearing a red gem of its own. Fire climbs both sides of the disc and a dull moon sits behind them on dark boards. The fire is the brightest thing here, brighter even than the dress. All of it is printed flat, with no raised edges.
This one is meant to be seen: a party wall, a hallway painted dark, a door for the last week of October. A loud gift for the friend who dresses for Samhain a month in advance.

The Black Cat leads the design as an archetype of mystery, independence and familiar lore. Other gothic or seasonal details build atmosphere around that central character.
