Monster Delay: The monster itself is not actually seen until the climax, Hardcastle’s first encounter with the creature is in total darkness where he can only hear the sound of its breathing and footsteps.

Nothing Is Scarier: When he first goes into the caves, Hardcastle ends up slipping in a stream and his torch goes and out and spare matches become damp, leaving him helpless and lost in the darkness and he is forced to wait until the matches dry. Sometime later he is awoken when he hears the breathing and footsteps of a giant creature approaching that he can’t see, all he can do is cower behind a rock and hope it doesn’t spot him.
