Music in horror films

Music is one of the most important aspects of a horror film as it is helping the film try to create a specific mood to the scene. The effective use of music will help promote even more emotions to the audience. Even though there are a lot of diverse range in the music that has been used throughout different horror films, some of these common conventions include: Isolated instruments are often used just before a key event occurs which helps link the idea of vulnerability, to the audience. Long suspenseful notes often help contrast with short sharp notes to help shock the audience. Extreme but intentional changes of pitch tones. For example low long brass notes which suddenly change to very fast high pitched notes to make the audience feel immediately tense.
