Twins are often used in horror to create a creepy feel.
As a twin myself I found it interesting to research the psychology of twins in horror; there is said to be such a strong bond between twins that they can feel each other’s pains/emotions.
This is effective for my film as ‘Lauren’ knows something is wrong with her twin brother when no one else does.
Here are some inspirations…
