Jiangshi Maiden in Ancestral Hall

A dark cinematic full-body portrait of [a young female jiangshi] standing centered in an ancient Chinese ancestral hall at night. She has an ethereal porcelain-pale face, large melancholy eyes with subtle red eye makeup, straight black bangs, and extremely long loose [black hair] falling past her waist. She wears traditional Qing dynasty-inspired jiangshi attire: a deep navy-black robe with wide layered sleeves, gold trim, ornate embroidered wave patterns at cuffs and hem, a square chest rank badge embroidered with a white crane, vertical gold frog closures, black embroidered shoes, and a long pearl prayer-bead necklace with a red tassel. On her head is a black-and-red Qing official hat with a small gold finial, and a yellow paper talisman with red calligraphy hangs over her forehead. Her hands are folded calmly in front of her, with a still, haunting expression. Shadowy temple interior with wet reflective stone floors, weathered wooden pillars, a large dim lantern overhead, vertical calligraphy banners, a glowing floor lantern on the lower left, an altar candle stand on the lower right, drifting blue spirit flames, and creeping low mist. Symmetrical framing, gothic Chinese dark fantasy style, muted blue-black palette with warm amber highlights, soft volumetric lighting, shallow depth of field.
