Art style: Cinematic Realistic.
Modern day nighttime shot inside the silent, shadowy upper corridor of the Crescent Hotel. A 30s male guest in modern casual clothing stands frozen, holding a handheld flashlight illuminating the long carpeted hallway into deep pitch darkness. Distant mysterious shadow faintly stretching at the far end. 9:16 vertical view.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Guest: American male in his early 30s, casual modern traveler clothing, messy hair, anxious wide eyes, holding a small flashlight casting harsh direct light, authentic worried facial expression, realistic texture.
