6. Synopsis
The story is based on a young girl moving into a
new home with her father and sister. In that
house was a girl who had previously died
(Caitlyn). She was 17, just around the same age
of the new girl moving in, Katy, who happens to
also be 17. The supernatural force/person is
trying to take over the girl’s body and possess it
as her own. She is trying to take Katy’s soul and
life and make it her own.

occur in the house such as coldness, frequent
scary dreams about Katy being possessed,
things going missing.

9. Film Influences
Firstly, I had taken the ‘possessive’ element from the
film Exorcist.
I had secondly taken the ‘gore’ from the film
unfriended (only a small amount) bloody foot prints -
for example
Thirdly, I had taken the ‘mysterious haunted house’
from the awakening
Fourthly, I had taken the jump-scares and creepy
music from Insidious 3.
And lastly had taken the ‘vulnerable girl - victim’
(protagonist) from scream.
