Synopsis

Synopsis The chosen synopsis for our horror trailer was very similar to the original idea we had, in the sense of the paranormal activity going on within our trailer. So we decided that the horror trailer would be based around a group of thrill-seeking teenagers that have decided to go and explore an abandoned mental asylum. The group of teens wouldn’t suspect any danger or suspicious behaviour to begin with until they start noticing ghostly activity going on around them, for example doors closing on their own, things being thrown from no visible person etc. We then decided to include an actual ‘villain’ within the trailer to replicate a conventional horror movie. The teens would therefore be harassed and bullied by the villain until he or she captures each and every one of them. Because of the location being a rundown asylum, we thought it would be an idea to maybe make this villain or ghost a former patient at the asylum who now haunts the building. We decided to go with this idea due to the results we received from our questionnaire.
