great capture.... the wire on the floor behind the chair is distracting and a different chair with less pattern might help.

I'm not completely sure, but that looks like a "Harry Potter" book that the boy is reading. The "monster" and the book do not match up. It is nice seeing a kid read. Technically, the picture is sound. Nice long exposure and well detailed.

Good illusion althought the image has that staged feel that doesn't really come over and grab you like an image of this type should. hope that makes sense 7

Great shot, especially as light as it is.

First Impression: I think there is too much light for the intended mood. Also, the boy's legs seem disproportionally long because of the closeness and wider angle. The cabling is a bit distracting too.
Was I fooled? Yes of course! We all know children don't read anymore!! Oh the masked guy!

This is a great idea, but it loses some of the effect it might have had because of several things... first, the setting. I think this would have been fantastic if you'd had this set in the child's room, while he's in bed in the dark with a small reading lamp or maybe a flashlight, then had the scary image looming over him or under the bed or something. Secondly, the obvious "human" hand takes away from the image: it is clear that the scary thing is just a human in disguise. Simply keeping the hand in the robes would work well. Thirdly, the child's expression doesn't show anything other than concentration or possibly even boredom, he needs to show a hint of fear or nervousness, or something... perhaps a glance over his shoulder, anything to show that the subject is showing your title " You know that tingling feeling you sometimes get reading a scary book..." Right now, I'd say, no, he doesn't know that feeling...
