Gothic Tide: Cinematic Supernatural Church Flood Text-to-Video Prompt

[PROJECT TYPE] Text-to-video. 30-second cinematic gothic atmosphere. Ruined stone church on muddy coastline - supernatural tide surge. [Global Setting] Ruined stone church standing alone on muddy coastline at low tide. Dark water pools reflecting storm-heavy sky. Lone woman in long black coat walking slowly toward open doorway. Boots sinking into wet sand. Seabirds circling above. Distant bells ringing from nowhere. Camera tracking behind woman. Inside church: flooded ankle-deep water. Candles burning directly on water surface. As woman reaches altar: tide rushes back unnaturally fast. Swallowing pews. Rising toward stained-glass windows. Mood: gothic, cold, mysterious, cinematic. Natural grey light. Wind. Distant thunder. Slow creeping tension. Supernatural atmosphere. [Scene Description - EXACT TIMING] [0–5s] EXTERIOR COASTLINE. Ruined stone church isolated on muddy shore. Low tide. Dark water pools everywhere reflecting grey storm-heavy sky. Ominous atmosphere. Wind blowing. Seabirds circling above church. Woman in long black coat enters frame from distance. Walking slowly. Deliberately. Purposefully toward open church doorway. Boots sinking into wet sand with each step. Movement meditative and haunting. Camera positioned behind woman. Following at close distance. Tracking her slow approach. We move with her pace. Tension building subtly. Sky grey and brooding. Clouds heavy. Storm approaching but not yet arrived. Light natural and muted. Colours desaturated. Mood: gothic and ominous. Distant bells ring (audible but source unclear). Sound ethereal and haunting. Seabirds cry above. Wind whistling. [5–12s] WOMAN reaches church doorway. Stops briefly. Looks inside. Dark interior visible. Flooded with water. Candles burning somehow (mysterious, unnatural). Woman takes breath and steps inside. Camera follows her through doorway. Perspective shifts from exterior to interior. From grey storm light to candlelit darkness. Temperature drops perceptibly (visual cold atmosphere). INTERIOR REVEALED. Stone walls. High arched ceiling. Pews partially submerged in ankle-deep water. Water surface completely still and dark. Reflecting candlelight above. CANDLES floating impossibly on water surface. Burning bright in darkness. Creating eerie reflections. Multiple candles throughout flooded church. Light dancing on water ripples. Woman walks deeper into flooded church. Water around her ankles. Footsteps rippling water surface. Creating circular ripple patterns from candlelight. Sky visible through broken stained-glass windows (partially intact, partially shattered). Storm clouds visible through glass. Wind howling subtly outside. Distant bells continue ringing. Sound echoing inside church chamber. Ethereal and haunting. [12–22s] WOMAN progresses toward altar. Walking slowly through flooded nave. Water getting slightly deeper. Candles all around. Pews submerged partially. Atmosphere building. Tension increasing. Supernatural feeling intensifying. THEN: TIDE RUSHES BACK UNNATURALLY FAST. Water level rises suddenly. Not gradual. Rapid acceleration. Unnaturally fast for tide movement. Water swallows pews quickly. Rising visibly. Height increasing noticeably. Woman stops. Watches. Expression mysterious. Not afraid. Accepting. Water continues rising. Toward waist level now. Still rising. Current becoming visible. Water moving with purpose. Candles continue burning impossibly (miracle or supernatural). Not extinguished by water. Still floating. Still burning bright. Woman continues walking toward altar. Against the rising tide. Determined. Moving forward despite water level increasing. Stained-glass windows filling with water level view. Water rising toward windows themselves. Church becoming more submerged. Thunder rumbles distant outside. Echoing through stone chamber. Ominous and deep. Wind intensifying (sound and visual effects). Storm arriving as tide rises. [22–30s] WATER reaches near-chest level. Still rising. Woman reaches altar finally. Stands before it. Hands the altar edge or places hands on surface. Water still rising. Toward stained-glass windows now. Window levels becoming submerged. Coloured glass reflected in rising water. Woman looks upward toward stained-glass windows. Expression serene or knowing. Not panicked. Accepting what's happening. Water level nearly to windows. Church fully flooded except upper arched ceiling. Interior completely transformed to underwater cathedral. Bells stop ringing. Sudden silence. Wind stops. Moment of complete stillness. Then: single bell toll. Deep and resonant. FINAL FRAME: Woman standing in flooded church before altar. Water at chest level. Candles still burning. Stained-glass windows submerged or nearly submerged. Grey light from windows creating ethereal underwater cathedral atmosphere. Woman's face peaceful or mysterious. Expression unknowable. Moment frozen. Church transformed. Tide unnaturally high. Supernatural event complete.
