psychological horror
Monday, October 18, 2004 by gizzimo | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hey, does anyone know any websites out there detailing the any theories on 'psychological horror'? I'm trying to write a treatment for a project at uni and I can't think of things that are really scary in a psychological sense. Has anyone played any of the Silent Hill series? (specifically silent hill 4) Because they're based entirely on psychological horror and visual and audio disturbance. Everything in those games are based on "what you can't see will scare you more" and the famous "silence is also a sound". they also used the rule of anti-emphasis in which most of the scariest things aren't actually foculised(?), you see it IF you notice it - alot more scarier than the the camera doing an extreme close up on it and the orchestration starts up. I'm looking for websites that concern and theorise "psychological horror", "abstract nightmares" and "common and odd phobias".
please please help me out I will be super greatful.
thanks.
