Horror Movie Opening Ideas

The mansion is an old heritage site and the building is abandoned, but not completely! The building is haunted by its previous owners which was royalty. But they were killed when a psychotic man wielding a knife invaded the massive building and killed everyone.
30 years later a photographer explores the off limit building to try and take creative pictures. During the photo taking he can hear noises out in the distance, but still in the mansion. He carries on taking pictures but some have blurred effects of a ghost, but he thinks it was just camera shake. The mansion is haunted by the killer and weeping of the people who were killed, the photographer can hear the cries of the people before they were killed.

The scene starts with a person running out from a room from loud noises with an over the shoulder shot, breathing heavily. Then goes into a fade in, fade out transition where the next clip is the mansion doors wide open with leaves blowing through it in slow motion. A voice over whispers, ‘here you are…now what?’ The music loudens with a rush of wind and again we see the person but with a close up of the side of their face breathing heavily once again. Then you see a hand grab around the corner of a wall by the top of the mansion stairwell and quickly retreats after the audience notices it. Then it ends. Shadows could be used as an eerie effect.
