A character freezes instead of fleeing
A character is grabbed from behind
Something moves just out of frame
An old journal or record explains the past
A final confrontation in the dark
The car won’t start
The power goes out
The expert who explains the situation
An animal reacts before the humans do
The villain survives what should be fatal
A disturbing dream sequence
A character looks under the bed
A door slams shut by itself
Investigating a strange noise alone
The phone has no signal
A locked door that was just unlocked
Strange sounds from inside walls
A shadow moves in the background
A character returns to the place of danger
A reflection that behaves differently
A child senses something is wrong
The weapon is dropped at the worst moment
The villain appears behind someone silently
The skeptical character who does not believe
Footsteps when no one is there
"I’ll be right back"
Silence right before something happens
Blood where there should not be any
Heavy breathing in the dark
The body disappears
“It’s probably nothing”
A character ignores a clear warning sign
A sudden loud noise fakeout
A character staring at something offscreen
The last second jump scare
Splitting up to cover more ground
A hidden room is discovered
Waking up… but not really
The mirror scare
The story hints it is not over
Running upstairs instead of outside
Someone trips while running
Whispering that no one else hears
A door slowly creaks open
A scream cut off abruptly
The authorities do not take it seriously
A storm makes everything worse
Flickering lights
The camera lingers too long on an empty space
The map or directions are wrong
