Those are obviously just mittens. The whole thing is rigged to look like someone is actually there. Quite ingenious, makes you wonder what’s going on so you’d read the book (if only this was true, it would make this cover a lot less sucky).
The disconnect between the length of the torso, arms, and legs of “Faith” is disturbing to me. I don’t wanna know what’s going on. I haven’t been this scared since mom and dad took me to the drive in to see the original “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”.

The legs on that “stove” look like they have musculature so maybe it’s not a stove at all but some kind of Lovecraftian, cyclops thing that has mesmerized the woman into mating with it, you know one of Lovecraft’s “don’t mate with that!” sagas.

Oh, it’s a stove?! I wondered why the lady who isn’t there had put a coffee pot on her old-timey TV set.
