[sullen leaf]

3rd

havent seen that many horrors to find which ones i dont like

[final gazelle]

What's a trope

[river sigil]

When the Skeletons break out into dance or something

[dapper girder]

THAT'S WHAT I SAID 😭

[round abyss]

what is a trope again though

[final gazelle]

Want to know man

[sullen leaf]

its like a cliche, or something that happens in a lot of media, idk if i explained it the best

[final gazelle]

Hmmm didn't understand

[round abyss]

https://tenor.com/view/jjk-gojo-gojo-satoru-satoru-chibi-gif-14400491202062702552

[final gazelle]

Just to know it's a cliche

[round abyss]

i still don't understand

[sullen leaf]

basically something like the pervy character in animes

it happens alot

[round abyss]

Oooooh

[final gazelle]

Oh ok

[rose veldt]

I dont have one💀💀

[round abyss]

me neither

[grand nimbus]

"And no matter what happens, I love y-"
proceeds to die

[sage raven]

"let's split up and look around"

As they proceed to get picked off by the killer one by one

[tall crystal]

Body swapping

That's a genre isn't it

Or the one person with common sense who wants to live but ends up dying because of the others incompetence

[soft sorrel]

The obvious tripping over super small shit

[keen widget]

Horror tropes are like when the bad guy jumps back up for another yell when he obviously would've been dead
Or "lets go out to a horrible cabin!"

Or the local warning them away from going to camp etc

Or running upstairs. Lol

[light ingot]

I dunno

[keen widget]

I mainly just like with a movie makes fun of that type of stuff

[tired vapor]

“I think we should split up”

[indigo socket]

Eye trap.

[keen widget]

Smoking a cigarette with sunglasses on while slow motion walking away from an explosion in the background lol.

Action, not horror, but still. It works

[upbeat jolt]

Micheal Myer knife

[prisma moss]

What's a trop?

[keen widget]

#1162339835332276296 message

[final crag]

hiding a zombie bite and entering a safe area

[native dock]

Oh yeah love that one

I really like “Oh my god there’s a murderer on the loose who kills someone every time they split from the group! I’m so freaked out that I just can’t be near anyone and I am now going to leave the group. Nothing bad will come of this move!”

[olive nova]

XD

[tall crystal]

I got war flashbacks from your yosano pfp

[hidden wigeon]

slasher trope

[quaint harbor]

scary stories to tell in the dark

[final crag]

turning around, asking is anyone there into the darkness, turning back, and then monster jumpscare

[split iris]

Slasher

It just overdone but i enjoy them

Even thought most have too many sequels

[next cove]

Like dumb main character having nerdy computer hacking best friene

It's like genres but more inside

Inside the show*

Like deku and bakugo are "rivals". Rival Trope

But as for the question, probably the murder mystery trope

[lyric shoal]

stupid friend is murderer

[cinder orbit]

People fully knowing that some scary shit is up with that haunted place/artifact/ritual and yet they still go there/touch/take/do it anyway

[sullen leaf]

Meow?

[lime harbor]

When the main character trips over air

[cyan merlin]

Hides behind a wall or a corner thinking it's safe

[timber jetty]

I don't actually know what to put

I don't watch horror

[summer rampart]

When the main cast split up.

[final crag]

when you read a cursed book and it possesses your eye and turns into a giant flying monster that shoots rocket projectiles

[storm dagger]

I dont watch horror

[lapis frost]

Impossible houses, like the lounge in the shining couldn’t physically exist because it made no sense shot after shot all without pointing attention to it

Mazes would shrink in sizes and windows would lead to interior rooms

Hallways would be connected to nowhere

Another good one is actual smart adults making smart decision

Losing their cool against someone supernatural but trying their best anyways

There’s nothing cheesy about what I mentioned oops

Anywho

[blazing fiber]

when the main character CLEARLY sees blood and other weird creepy stuff in their new apartment and STILL refuses to move out

oh and then they go in the attic and their old toy is posessed

[tacit night]

no noor was first

[indigo socket]

https://tenor.com/view/omori-furious-gif-23953052

[pseudo fossil]

wtf is a trope

[lapis frost]

It’s like something you could see in different movies

A love triangle is a popular trope

In the case of horror movies, someone looks in a mirror then something appears behind them

[rancid ether]

😌

I should change the . To first

[lapis frost]

I could delete the . so they’d be first

[crystal viper]

Mind games murder spree (saw series)

[balmy trench]

so real xoxo lets marry pookie

[sullen leaf]

the clueless guy

[mint stump]

Brave white man vs scared, reasonable scared black man

[bold folio]

The person who’s being chased keeps falling

[oblique laurel]

Puzzle based sequences where the protagonists and the others just keep failing.

[crystal viper]

Aye LEZZGOO ❤️‍🔥🗡️

[balmy trench]

[loud parcel]

hiding under beds

[worldly inlet]

Its not rly cheesy but annabelle

[vagrant lynx]

idk

[grizzled fern]

Discovering other worlds

[grave cedar]

Murder

Oooh love that one too

[bleak vault]

scary cheese

🤯

[craggy hazel]

Don’t have one

[brittle musk]

murder mystery/haunted house

[sullen leaf]

A dumbass dying in the first second, always makes me laugh

[full osprey]

Contrary to popular belief i love it when its the dumbass thats the final girl

[crystal viper]

[azure wraith]

CREATURE FEATURE

Slasher is also silly

[normal beacon]

people doing dumb shit in movies (like running into the one that chases them or doing exactly what they are not supposed to do)

[cerulean trout]

yess

[flat saffron]

idk if a trope but that one lanky tall character bc they’re silly

[rustic girder]

I’m with raichu on this.

[pallid venture]

jack skellington

my beloved

[versed galleon]

Splitting up to look for danger 💀💀 so stupid bruh

[echo storm]

I love those trucks/utes with the shitty fake bodies in the back idk why

[flat saffron]

not just jack skellington any tall lanky guy

[lavish palm]

"Lets split up and find the killer!!"
YOU ARE GOING TO DIE

[sullen leaf]

Lol... "I'll show you what a staff infection is!"

[tacit patio]

Masked killers. Gives them something iconic that associates with them. Jason’s Hockey Mask, Ghost Face, Michael Myer’s etc. Idk I just like it.

[sullen leaf]

Fr

[tepid raft]

It’s funny when they do really stupid things like they’ve never watched a horror show of their own before😭

[graceful gulch]

Splitting up

"Oh! Let's go do the exact opposite of what that person said. Instead of staying here and being safe, let's go see if anyone else is around! 🤓"

[stark wharf]

idk

i dont really watch halloween movies

[teal onyx]

i can't watch Halloween movies cause strict parents

[wide lotus]

The mother fucker that goes “he’s right behind me isn’t he”

[icy grotto]

the main characters get a bad feeling when they go somewhere
but they still go

[grand nimbus]

I love that 😭
