Titles...

I've been thinking about what to do next and I think the best thing for me to get started on would be my poster, but I need a title for the film before I can come up with a poster.

So, I thought of some of the significant things/ events in my plot, here's what I came up with...
  • Possession
  • Ghosts
  • Music box
  • Fire
When I was making my magazine for my AS coursework, something which really helped me to think of a name was to find synonyms of words related to the magazine.
I thought this would also work for my horror film, for example 'Sinister' is a synonym of 'evil' and sounds a lot better in my opinion.

So I decided to find synonyms for the above words:

I've highlighted the ones that I like

Ghosts
  • phantom
  • devil
  • demon
  • soul
  • shadow
  • specter
  • vision
  • apparition
  • revenant
  • appearance
  • haunt
  • visitor 
  • shade
  • spook
  • poltergeist
  • phantasm
  • wraith 
  • vampire
  • daemon
  • manes
  • kelpie
  • banshee 
  • zombie
  • eidolon
  • ethereal being
  • incorporeal being 

Music
  • The only one I liked for music was 'melody' I think this would be interesting to use because it sounds like a pleasant name which contrasts to the horror.
Fire
  • inferno
  • heat
  • blaze
  • bonfire
  • embers
  • combustion
  • scorching
  • devouring
  • searing
  • luminosity  
  • warmth  
  • conflagration  
  • glow   
  • hearth  
  • element 
  • tinder  
  • flare  
  • pyre  
  • scintillation 
  • hot spot  
  • phlogiston 
  • sparks  
  • campfire 
  • incandescence 
  • oxidation 
  • charring 
  • flames
  • coals
  • flame and smoke  
  • up in smoke 

Other names that I've thought of are Revenge- as the ghost sister is trying to get revenge on her step sister.
