People Magazine has a new issue featuring never-seen-before pictures of Volturi members – Jane, Demetri, Aro, Alec, and Caius. We broke the news yesterday as a NewMoonMovie.org reader was generous enough to scan the images from the mag and share them with us!

In the People Magazine article they state -

In New Moon, the second installment in Stephenie Meyer’s wildly popular Twilight saga, readers are first introduced to the ancient ruling class of vampires known as the Volturi. Determined to capture their creepy menace for his screen version opening Nov. 20, New Moon director Chris Weitz has given them custom-crafted blood-red eyes.

“They’re all hand-painted, specially manufactured contacts,” Weitz tells PEOPLE. “They’re opaque red, almost like preying mantis eyes. You can’t really see into them. There’s something terribly off-putting about it.”

British actor Michael Sheen (The Queen) plays Aro, leader of the Italian blood-sucking clan. Although Aro and his brothers Marcus (Christopher Heyerdahl) and Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower) have been “alive” for thousands of years, Weitz says he “deliberately” gave them a younger look in the film – for which he credits author Meyer.

Check out the detail on Caius and Aro’s chairs! Is the Volturi ‘lair’ what you imagined thus far?
