Costumes:

James Potter:

·         Black t-shirt

·         Black jeans

·         Black desert boots

The all black outfit will illustrate; death, evil and mystery. These are all key themes in psychological thrillers and will help the audience to understand the character and maybe even figure out straight away from the outfit, that he is the antagonist.

Megan Potter:

·         Red top- to connote love, death, blood and maybe her promiscuous side as red can be quite a sexual colour.

·         White skirt- indicating her purity and innocence.

·         No shoes- to emphasise how isolated, helpless and hopeless she is as she is stuck alone in a cellar with as it seems, no help.

·         Smudged make up- to show how distraught and helpless she is because as much as she cries, there may be no hope for her in the end. Maybe to also show how long she’s been stuck down there.

·         Ring- to emphasise that she is married to the man and that even in this horrific time, she is still wearing it.

Abigail Granger:

·        Pink blouse- smart/office style top to show the nature of her job. Pink to represent the love and care she has for her sister and make her look like an innocent, feminine character
      Black jeans - add a sense of mystery to her character as in the opening the audience are unaware of the part she will play and her role (as the protagonist)
      White shoes - show her innocence and purity
