Human Architecture Horror
A subtrope of Body Horror where recognizably human/humanoid bodies have become attached to a wall or other solid structure... permanently. Commonly involves extremities and even the torso of the body dissolving, disintegrating, or disappearing into the surroundings while the head or face remains visible. They're not just stuck to a wall with glue: victims of this trope have merged with an underlying structure in a manner that would make it impossible (or at least very, very painful) to remove them in one piece.
Cel Animation
Cel animation, also known as traditional animation, is a technique where each frame is drawn and characters painted by hand on transparent sheets of celluloid (cels for short). The process was time-consuming and costly, requiring a large team of artists.
Cel animation starts with each individual frame drawn on a blank cel with ink. The cel is then flipped over, with the painter painting it on the back. Backgrounds are created separately. When both are complete, the cel is stacked in front of the background. It is photographed, creating a frame. More cels are painted and photographed in sequence to create the illusion of movement.
