Used a mask and lots of candles to get a sorta spooky look for this one ....I was trying to give this picture a feeling of not only spooky but almost cultishness.

This capture does produce the moody, cultish feel that you were after, but the lighting is lacking just a little. I think changing the position of the small candles to move them out of the frame without loosing the light would have made this one even better. Those just look out of place and take away some interest, in my opinion. You have a very nice balance using the two larger candles on either side, and those also fit the overall feel of the photo. The composition is just a little too centered for my taste, but I do like the photo overall. Great idea, and small changes would make it even better.
This makes me think of a lurid pseudodocumentary from the 60s or possibly the 50s. I just wish the picture were a little scarier or more bizarre to lure me in.
