In order to fit the conventions of our sub-genre (ghost), we might have things moving on their own in the film because this is a very popular conventions in ghost films.
We would also like to make our horror film children-based, because children in horror films can always
enhance eerie feeling and even appeal a wider range of audience including adults and teenagers.
So location we are probably using will be somewhere with children, for example nursery, orphanage, playground etc. Kid's evil laughter will be put in the film to create a scary atmosphere.
Since mirrors are commonly used in horror films, we might make use of reflection to portray a sense of mystery before the film reaches its climax. This is to drag audience into the mood of the film, and further enhance the mutual threat since the audience are like exploring what will happen next with victims in the film. It would be a good idea to have some shots of the shadows of props or the victims to create the loneliness and emptiness of the location, thus increase the vulnerability of the victim.
We prefer having dark eyes as make up of the ghost in our film to make it scary.
