GENRE RESEARCH: HORROR 
Dyllon Milburn
WHAT IS HORROR 
Horror is a genre often based around scaring and shocking viewers. It people 
to feel disgust and fear. It is usually very intense in the way it does so. They 
focus around paranormal, murderers, suspense and often psychological issues.
PROPS, LOCATION AND COSTUME 
Props used may be things such as rope, chains, weapons, prosthetic limbs and 
fake blood. They add a more gory effect to the movies and often look very 
realistic. 
The locations are very important, as they provide the main setting of the 
movies. Common locations may be abandoned buildings or forests as they are 
all very eerie places you could imagine something horrific happening. 
Costumes may be things such as ripped clothes or dark material.
