I have decided to write my storyline in the genre of horror. 

     A group of three friends are very drunk and messing around in one of their houses. One of the friends come up with the idea to spend the night camping in the woods. The three friends venture into the woods with their tent, with plans to spend the night. Whilst the three friends are joking around and laughing in the tent, a loud, slow drum beat starts somewhere in the distance. One of the friends goes outside to investigate the weird noise. They walk out of sight. Camera cuts back to the two friends in the tent who hear a scream. They simultaneously scramble for the tent opening to check if everything is okay. The character who went to investigate is nowhere to be seen, but the two remaining characters notice a note on a nearby tree. It reads, "You're Next...". A shallow focus shot shows the two friends looking at each other horrified, with a blurry white figure in the background wearing a suit. When the camera shot changes and the two friends look behind them, the figure has gone. They decide to stick together from then on. They search the area around the tent. One of the friends needs to go to the toilet, so they walk off to a dark area of undergrowth. The character notices another note stuck to the tree. This one says, “Don’t look behind you”. A shallow focus shot from where the note is positioned shows the character looking at the camera, with the white figure from before stood right behind them. As the character turns around the figure comes into focus, and grabs them. Camera goes black with the character screaming. Camera goes to remaining person, who is frantically running back to the tent. They dive inside and grab a mobile phone, dialling 999. The police tell them they’ll be approximately 15 minutes. In around ten minutes, the person inside the tent hears a voice outside. “Hello! This is the police!” The character climbs hastily out of the tent, stands up, and looks around. They cannot see anyone. The camera does a full circle around them until it shows behind. The figure from before is stood behind the character, and it is now clear the figure is slender man. The character turns around and screams, film finishes.
