New Narrative

Below is the new narrative for our trailer, we had to make slight changes to the narrative as through doing filming for our trailer we realised that some elements of our story were not going to work. For example in our old narrative there was a family that moved into a new house, this included the generic family of a man, woman and 3 children, when doing casting we came into realization that this was not going to work as we could not find a mature male to play the role of a father nor could we find to young boys, so we changed our whole storyline around the characters featured. OUR NEW NARRATIVE The narrative of our film features a young girl named Annabelle, aged 15, who lived with her mother, father and younger brother. She loved to write, especially poems. Every day she would write in her diary; a new poem and a chapter about her day concerning her emotions and feelings especially about how she was tormented and labelled about having mental health issues as she would hear voices and see ghosts. She believed that she was being haunted by a ghost who she named ‘Guinevere’ (around the age of 5, but no one knows except herself) or otherwise known as ‘The ghost that lives at 134 Willowtree Lane’, who manipulated and antagonized her constantly because all she wanted was someone to play with her and love her, like her mother never did. This eventually made Annabelle commit suicide; from a drug overdose, due to the constant hassle of people calling her ‘crazy’ and the continuous terrorizing from Guinevere. All she wanted was to be left alone. Guinevere was finally at peace when Annabelle died, as she finally got the friend she always wanted, now that Annabelle is in a spirit form. When Annabelle died, all she left was her diary, and the mystery of her death unsolved. 17 years later, a group of friends are put together to research about something interesting within their locate area for a school project. Searching online they tremble up across an old article which tells them about a young girl called Annabelle committing suicide in this house. The group of friends consist of an innocent, studious and intelligent girl called Sammi (aged17) a provoking, attention seeking and promiscuous girl named Regina (aged 17) and an clumsy, foolish girl called Lara (aged 17). In search of this house, they ask a few people around the locate area if they have heard anything about 134 Queens Road and the story of Annabelle. They all receive negative feedback and are warmed not to go there as the house is haunted by the deadly spirits of Annabelle. But without a doubt Regina insist on making a visit to the house as she finds this mystery of Annabelle intriguing and is determined to find out more for the school project set. On the other hand, Sammi disagrees completely and is constantly reminding Regina of what could potentially go wrong. On the 6th of March, around 5PM they make their visit down to the house, (having trouble finding it at first) they finally reach the old wooden gates. First in, Regina finds a back door which leads them in to the abandoned house, followed by Laura and lastly Sammi. As they start to explore the old and dusty house, Sammi realise that something's completely wrong and tells the others to leave now. Now coming up to 6.30PM; after Regina's satisfaction of staying in the house and messing around they decide to leave, but Regina see’s a door leading to the attic of the house with she insists on exploring. She makes her way up stairs, and suddenly the door slams shut. The sprit of Annabelle kills her and the other two friends panic and run, reaching out for the front door, they hear it lock itself and jumped, left in complete silence. Only accompanied by the spirits of Annabelle, things start to go bad really quickly. Sammi tells Lara to stay together but she disagrees and tries to find a way out. Second death happens to Lara as she gets engulfed into the darkness, and dragged to hell. Left alone in the haunted house, Sammi finds ways to escape but fails. She finds a dairy that Annabelle use to write along with her childhood toys, and discovers the truth behind it all. Speaking back to the spirit, she is tormented for a days until finds a way out and escapes from the house. The spirit of Annabelle is at peace through the killing of Regina and Lara, but this goes down as an unsolved mystery. The haunted house still awaits for its next arrival, this time spirits of Regina and Lara will be after you.
