Dark/ Night time-  This is a main feature of a horror film, bad things mainly happen at night. Also, darkness connotates to bad things and evil.


The Face- The facial expression is oddly happy which gives it a creepy sense. Also, the fact it is made out of a ghostly mist gives a horror atmosphere.


The light- The only two bits of lighting are the moon and the one house light in the window. This suggests that darkness and evil takeover.


The House- The house is in the centre of the poster which suggests it is a main feature of the film. Also, the house is on its own on a street, which could mean isolation.
