Nymph-O-Maniac
1983

A vintage-style photograph featuring three individuals in a dimly lit room. On the left, a woman with dark hair and a white blouse smiles while holding a doll with a red hat. In the center, a man with a serious expression holds the doll's head close to his face. On the right, another man peers around a door frame, holding a mask with a frightened expression up to his face. The room has a gritty texture, and the image has a reddish, sepia-toned color palette, adding to the eerie atmosphere.
