So far.... movement in ideas

So in my last few bits of reserch ive been looking into why ive looked at fears, and also looking into some film suggestions about building fear and tension in cinema. So far ive pulled up a few ideas to do with places, and this really interests me! the idea that a place holds a memory or the history of a place is tragic and therefore people are scared of it. In  a sense looking at haunted locations, not at the idea of a physical ghostly apperition but of the idea of a haunted place, a place thats atmosphere is different because of its history. I love the idea of going to areas that are ment to have a bad past to it and photographing them as they are now, but trying to create tension and fear into a photograph of a place, without the ghostly figures ect. just the place. of course i will need to be subjective. visit these places of interest to this idea and get a feel for the place, maybe visit at different days, different weather, different times to get different feelings. I dont want a boring photograph. And looking into otherways other people have created atmosphere in there images or even how films build tension and fear into a location. I like the idea of trying to sort out a trip to london to get images of those places where the bombings took place, as well as other big locations that are reeped in historical tragity. I know from doing ghost walks in the past in my home towns that there is much history everywhere, often in locations looked past. This is what i enjoy to do, taking photos based upon some form of meaning that i can reserch and submurge myself into. and i think i can achieve some real amazing works.
