Snow

The bleak, isolating backdrop amplifies the tension, but I wonder if the snow also serves as a character itself. Did the author intend it to symbolize the characters' emotional states?

The creatures felt like more than just horror elements—they seemed to represent fear or guilt. What do others think these monsters might symbolize beyond the literal threat?

Limiting the story to one setting kept the tension tight, but I'm curious whether this was to heighten the sense of claustrophobia or for other reasons during the creative process.
