Props and Location (Organisation of Actors, Locations, Costumes or Props)

Here is a photo of my attic, the low key lighting is very effective as it establishes the genre, also as the attic is not completely visible there is a fear of the unknown and what is lurking in the attic. Attics are very conventional locations in horror films as they are places for hiding and lurking which again all adds to the fear that there is something/someone hiding in the attic.  

Here I photographed the steps leading up to the attic. I think filming my protagonist ascending the attic steps would be very effective and add to audience anticipation. I would use very slow editing for this scene to create absolute suspense within the audience.  

This photo shows the contrast between the natural light and whiteness beneath the steps and the dark, gloomy almost grey attic. The grayness in this photo is very overwhelming and almost looks as if the steps are a picture as they do not fit at all with the attic. 

This is the dress I want my 'internal monster' (young girl) to wear . It looks aged and has an almost has a Mrs Havisham type of element to it, it looks very 1800's Gothic and is similar to what the girl wears in The Exorcism as well as the girl from The Ring. 

Here is a long shot photo of the girl in the dress, the messy hair, pale skin and dark eyes, compliment the dress as she looks although young as if she is from another era, which she essentially is. 

This is an establishing shot of the attic again the low key lighting portrays this fear of the unknown and therefore creates a foreboding sense of doom. The mirror is a particularly important prop as the girl will appear in the mirror behind the protagonist and then disappear.
