The planning of an amazing trailer !!

Production company: X111


Pitch: "The Forth Kind and Poltergeist meet Amityville Horror in the woods"
- Seeing things, Abductions, Influences, Mental.
- Demons, Torment/Torcher, Feeding off fear.

- Isolated, No technology, No support.


Scenerio:  "A teenage girl gets haunted and taken to the woods by a spirit. Her friends are possesed and killed and torment the girl"

"Haunted" being the prop paradigm as well as "possesed"
"Teenage girl", "friends" and "spirit" are the character paradigms
"woods" is the setting paradigm


Treatment:
Opens in the girl being in therapy talking about the haunting and the huge event (traumatic event), discussion with threapist about the ouija board. (time and date on recording) video goes static-earlier time and date with everyday life.
Her friends are at her house for a sleep over, chatting and giggling.
There is a bang going down the stairs and a picture of her and her friends is smashed at the bottom of the stairs. One of her friends freaks out and mentions the ouija board.
They go back into the bed room and fall asleep, once they are asleep ghost activity happens for a short while.

The Camera goes to black and there is the sound of a girl giggling and the girl wakes up in the woods with her friends. She blames her friends as she wakes them up.
then she starts to freak out once she knows its not her friends and so does one other, however the other friend is sitting there with her head down-there is a close up on her face and she is smiling and the sound of the giggle is heard again, made by her.
The others react to this but then she is back to normal.
A sequence of weird things happen (bussing)
One friend is possesed and tries to attack them, the girl and her other friend run away, the possesion then jumps (which is indicated by the giggle)

The teenage girl says for one night she will keep watch
She slowly starts to go mad, paranoid.
For awhile nothing happens-One of her friends does something small one night (finds a sharp object to show them) The others think she is possesed and is trying to hurt them- they accidentally kill her. They bury her and run away.
The next morning they hear a giggle, they are scared and a little girl appears with her family, they calm down and ask for directions - they get out of the woods.
The other friends ends up commiting suicide under possesion.
Close up of bloody hand, glass and picture of the friends together.
As the girl comes out of threapy her boyfriend meets her and as they walk together her giggles the same giggle she has heard throughout, she stops him and he dosnt understand what she is going on about.
(we know this is her boyfriend from a picture in her room and her and her friends talking)
