Plot ideas, going along the typical codes and conventions of
a haunting horror film-
Group of friends doing dares staying in haunted and
abandoned houses-
Brief synopsis- typically a big group of friends are shown
at home or in the city where they are comfortable and are getting together,
this being the equilibrium part of the film or trailer, then they decide to go
on a trip exploring the unknown camping and sleeping in old abandoned and
haunted houses, drinking and doing dares and generally having fun. Then the
disequilibrium section of the film or trailer comes when strange things start
to happen and then one night when they’re camping or staying in a haunted or
abandoned is when the disequilibrium happens and people starting dying from
unexplained reasons and the others can’t figure out what’s going on and started
getting scared. This section of the plot goes on for a while until nearly all
of the characters have died and then the big ending happens where there is a
bit of the show down between the good and evil and 1 or 2 people survive and
return back to their normal lives this being the return to equilibrium.
Ordinary family get haunted-
Brief synopsis- starts off with the equilibrium when a
family are living as normal, usually being a full family with the mum and dad
and a few children normally 2 to 4, or typically they have moved into a new
house or town and are getting used to their new life when strange things start
happening such as things objects start moving, TV’s or radio’s change channel
or the radio waves interrupted or doors and windows open on their own this is
when the disequilibrium happens when everything starts going wrong for the
family and they realise paranormal things are happening and they try to seek
help with someone who deals with these things are in the paranormal
profession. That’s when things get
really serious and the evil presence takes over their lives and that’s when the
family and the people working to help them have to go to great lengths to get
things back to normal and to get rid of the evil spirit. This is when the big
thing happens and everything is very fast and loud then all of a sudden things
stop and things go back to normal and then the return to equilibrium and the
family return back to their normal lives as much as they can.
A couple start getting stalked or haunted-
Brief synopsis- Starts off with the equilibrium where the
couple are living normally together in their house or apartment, then the
disequilibrium happens where something starts happening and things start going
wrong such as they start getting haunted, and it gradually gets worse, then the
problem is realised and they try do something about it by filming it or by
getting a professional or a priest to help which typically in most horrors
makes the situation worse. That’s when the climax happens and something bad
happens to one or both of them, sometimes this is where the film ends leaving
it on a cliff hanger to have the audience on the edge of their seats, but
sometimes they find a solution that works and that’s when the haunting stops
and the return to equilibrium happens.
