Title: Company of Shadows
Fandom: The Shadow of the Tower
Song: Father's Day - Murray Gold (DW soundtrack)
Rating: PG (but only for the morbid theme)
Length: 1.55 mins
Content notes: Death masks (in case anyone else also finds them creepy) and general morbidity.
Vidder notes: From the 1972 BBC drama The Shadow of the Tower (a serial covering the reign of Henry VII of England). Spoilers only for actual history.
Summary: Henry and Elizabeth, turning into mere memories and ghosts - and death masks.





So (in case this doesn't seem as obviously connected to the prompt as it did to me): generally passing from life to memory (ghosts) and Henry especially becoming like a ghost at the end. Also death masks (which I find ghostly/creepy in rl). Also, if you would like a rl ghost story to accompany this vid, here you are:

James Maxwell (the actor who plays Henry here), died in 1995 and is said to haunt the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester. A few years ago, the BBC's Most Haunted had an episode which included an attempt (successful, they claim) to contact him. Which may make him the only actor to appear on the BBC before and after his death. (In a case of rl is stranger than fiction. Or, er, something...)

This is a weird thing to make, but I'd like to say that in the spirit of the comm, I mainly used it to try a few different things with my vidding software.
