Fog, pale faces, blood, fangs and blue light all seem to appear in expecially vampire films. However will will not include blood in ours to be more realistic. Often the horror play's on sexual and somtimes romantic desires many victims are female to appeal to the male gaze such as in The Satanic Rights of Dracula. Castle's, forrests and mansions all appear to be the settings for horror films although The Lost Boy's used a fun fair we chose a forest for ours because it is easiest to get hold of. Lightening, stroms, moonlight and fog we will have to create to stay within the conventions of our genre.
