Sounds like a fun challenge – mix a dark, moody palette, subtle parallax shadows, and a few animated whispers that appear when you hover over a hero image. Add a splash of neon or glitch effect to hint at another world, then wrap it all in a clean, mobile‑first layout so it feels both mysterious and accessible. Remember: the trick is to keep the code tidy so the design stays crisp – otherwise the portal will just become a glitchy mess.
