These intense [monochrome photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grigio-verde) by Tomasz Haczyk capture the essence of dark, ghoul-like beauty. The series of snapshots titled 'Invisible Mrs.Parker' emphasize the model's drastic [bottom eyelash extensions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palettes-of-beautifying-eye-trends) that look like heavy shadows casting on her frail-looking face.

Along with the borderline [Gothic makeup theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shadow-of-secrets-collection), the model's facial expressions -- that look either unimpressed or concerned -- achieve the dark and mysterious look. The black and white edit parallels the cold aura of the photos' content; they just wouldn't have the same ghastly effect if they were in color.

These photos are captivating because they portray an ice-cold, monochromatic side of a woman. From the model's immaculate facial expressions to the photos' finishing edits, 'Invisible Mrs.Parker' delivers visually the abyss of a person's mind.
