Group's Trailer Ideas

Dan's Idea –

Set in an abandoned hospital, in its past life – several children were murdered by who was meant to be their legal guardian. All of the children, bar one, died peacefully and were buried. One child came back as a spirit and haunted anything and everything it could find. One group of teenagers decide to investigate the hospital and when they get there it all starts off fine, but as the teenagers explore the dark rooms one problem leads to another, and no-one is safe.

Main Characters: Group of innocent college students, typical ‘slasher horror’ sort of group, typical blonder, ‘badman’ and others.

Location: Set in an abandoned hospital, late noughties. Old English marsh sort of surrounding.

My Idea –

Set in the modern day in an old mental hospital, a group of teens explore as they discover the building on their way to a party. Little do they know that the past patients here were mistreated – abused by those who were supposed to be taking care of them. Haunted by spirits of the mistreated patients, the teens must fight their way out and find their escape. Unfortunately for them, they cannot see what it is they’re up against.

Main Characters: A group of between 4 and 6 students, aged around 17.

Location: Old abandoned hospital somewhere in the country – out of the way, similar to The Cabin in the Woods.

Zak’s Idea –

Set in an old care home/orphanage, the spirit of an abused child haunts anyone that comes near. A group of high school/college students venture inside, having been told that the building will be the site of a rave. Apparently having found the wrong location as nobody else turns up, the students become trapped and have to escape the spirit in order to survive. But do they all make it out alive?

Main Characters: A group of teens, between 16 and 18 years old.

Location: Abandoned and derelict buildings, some scenes in a school/college.


We have decided that the voted idea for our trailer will a combination of all three of these ideas. All of these ideas are incredibly similar,  only differing slightly mostly in terms of location, and details which would be major if creating an entire film but as we are only creating a trailer will probably go unnoticed.
