Tropes of Horror
-Ken Feliz

Suspense in music and/or leading the viewer to a climax or event.

Eerie music that adds to the suspense and creepiness of the scenario which leads to fright.

Uncomfortable and creepy sounds that unsettle the viewer

Supernatural beings such as demons, ghosts, monsters are typical beings in the horror genre

Jump scares - cheap but effective. Ties in with loud music to scare the viewer.

Agony is unsettling and the viewer can relate with the actor in a negative way.
