It looks like the half-face of some scary person peeking around a door.

Yes, that’s what I saw too, but dunno how that links to the title. The great mysteries of life!

Imagine this notation in a script for a horror film...
They neared the doorway, which was ever so slightly ajar, and their eyes darted around, each of them trying to search the dark and narrow space for any sign of life in the next room. Just as one of their hands was about to grasp the doorknob, a sliver of a face suddenly filled the entire gap in the doorway, and they both screamed and leapt backwards in shock.Some call jump-scares a cheap form of storytelling, but it's a tried-and-true method of upping the anxiety in a scary movie/show/game - I'd argue it only cheapens when you overuse them. And it can be an excellent form of misdirection, if you set up a jump-scare moment from a character that isn't otherwise scary. This half-face might well be entirely benign, even friendly, when seen in full width. :)

Some kind of fishman? I know it's a monster showing scary face. But it'd be interesting to know what monster.

For me, is not a monster, just a scary man face.
Wow - good puzzle with no Xs - great perspective for the image.
replyThe column numbers add up to the image very nicely. I this case it can be a planned feature ;)
Thank you, Jelito!

I'm trying to figure out how your comment means something beyond what it means to every other nonogram. What am I missing?
replyWhat are you seeing, i cant make sense of the picture or your comment!

Oh, I meant the thumbnail. The column numbers seems to be like lines of a scared (or falling) person's hair standing up. I guess my hair would be like that if I had any.
