My Favourite Niche Of Horror Will Forever And Always Be Lighthouses. The Isolation. The Dread. Whenever

My favourite niche of horror will forever and always be lighthouses. The isolation. The dread. Whenever a protagonist is in a lighthouse, they’re cut off from the rest of the world. Especially in horror, the atmosphere of terror they create is peak because it’s a simple enough space to navigate with not a lot of places to hide and, that’s want makes it so scary. The waves crash loudly against the shore but, inside, all you can hear is the sound of your own heartbeat as it becomes louder and louder. Your heart beating out of your chest. Because you know The Danger isn’t hiding. It can’t. It doesn’t want to. And if you just turn around then, well.

shoutout to the metaphor of a lighthouse mirroring the isolated state of a character, gotta be one of my favourite genders

The Woods Are Beautiful, The Sunlight Peaks Through The Trees And Dances Across The Surface Of The Lake.

the woods are beautiful, the sunlight peaks through the trees and dances across the surface of the lake. The sky is clear with not a cloud in sight and everything is quiet.

peaceful.

where is everyone?

the crickets, the birds, the critters, the people?

A digital monochrome watercolor drawing of Mabel and Dipper Pines. They are talking to an unseen figure who asks, "What do you believe in now?" Mabel stands proudly with a raised finger as she declares, "Self-preservation through love!" Dipper, looking grimly furious, his hands clutched tightly at his sides, hisses, "El Chupacabra." Mabel adds, "El Chupacabra as well."

el chupacabra believes in you too!
