HORROR INSTRUMENTAL CUES

What I like most about this song
The track embodies the unsettling horror aesthetic, featuring eerie motifs and tension-filled effects that align with the listing.
I think you could improve this song by
I'm missing an actual progression here. It would be great if we have some type of build up at the later parts of the track.
Development could use some more work.

.... But the screener didn't say it was missing a theme, they said it was missing progression and build up in the later parts. The track here has a similar intensity and dynamic all through, and even falls away towards the end. I'd say that's what the screener was referring to. In horror it seems like the victim is always getting closer to the danger (when they're not trying to escape from it), so if the music needs to support such increasing tension then that might explain the request for progression and build up.
Like it is, and 100% HI
