The aesthetic of Season 2 remains consistent with the first: cold, bleak, and grounded. The "jumps" are violent and disorienting, lacking the cinematic grace usually associated with teleportation.

The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to simmer until it boils over in the final episodes, leaving viewers with a haunting cliffhanger that questions whether Henry can ever truly be "safe."
