The document contains the results of several surveys conducted to inform the creation of a slasher film. The surveys asked about gender breakdowns, how audiences watch movies, what weapons they find scary, their favorite slasher films, what they find scary, memorable villains, and scary locations. The most prominent findings were that knives and Freddy Krueger were seen as the scariest weapon and villain, and that cabins/houses were the scariest locations. This information will be used to design frightening elements for the new slasher film.
