Spaghettification Glitch Effect (Loki Inspired)

A multi-layered prompt designed to recreate the 'spaghettification' or disintegration effect seen in the Loki TV series. It uses four distinct layers of instructions to ensure background stability, violent unraveling of the subject's edges into non-glowing ribbons, analog glitch overlay concentrated only on the edges, and ghostly motion-blur afterimages behind the subject.

Prompt

(Photorealistic:1.3), raw photograph, cinematic lighting, sharp focus on the subject’s face and eyes, crisp skin texture.
LAYER 1: BACKGROUND STABILITY (CRITICAL):

The entire background environment from the input image remains completely STATIC, FROZEN, CLEAN, and UNCHANGED — no noise, no scanlines, no distortions, no glitches in the background.
LAYER 2: FOREGROUND SUBJECT EDGE-CHAOS:

The main subject’s core (face/torso) stays clear and undistorted, BUT the outer silhouette boundaries are unraveling violently into long ribbons of (non-glowing physical matter:1.3), showing stretched fabric/leather/latex-like material with realistic strand separation and tearing flow (“Spaghettification”), no gore.
LAYER 3: ANALOG GLITCH OVERLAY (EDGE-ONLY):

Heavy VHS static, scan lines, color bleed, and screen tearing noise are CONCENTRATED EXCLUSIVELY ON THE UNRAVELING EDGES of the main subject, like an edge mask. No full-frame VHS overlay; the core and background remain clean.
LAYER 4: GHOSTLY AFTERIMAGES (BEHIND SUBJECT):

Directly BEHIND the unraveling main subject, visible through the gaps, there are TWO translucent, ghostly motion-blur AFTERIMAGES. They are violently twisted into agonizing, struggling postures, dragged by temporal distortion. They remain behind the subject, partially occluded, not separate characters.

Negative prompt (optional but recommended):

full-frame glitch, background distortion, extra people, duplicate main subject, neon glow, energy beams, particles, blood, gore, exposed organs, messy face, blurry eyes, deformed hands
