BuzzFeed has put together a list of tiny details in horror films that you probably missed the first time around. Here are 10 that prove scary movies are just as carefully crafted as films from other genres (check out the full list at the link):
- In Hereditary, during a scene that cuts from day to night, you can see the house surrounded by coven members in the dark.
- In The Descent, before the monsters are introduced into the story, you can spot one of them peeking out in the cave before vanishing a moment later.
- The name of the demon nun, Valak, is visible throughout the The Conjuring 2. For example here, the letter decorations on a shelf spell Valak.
- In It, when Pennywise wants to lure Georgie into the drain, he changes his eye color from yellow to blue, the same as his brother Bill's. This is something that's specifically mentioned in the novel.
- Scream was directed by Wes Craven, who briefly appears in the film as a janitor dressed like Freddy Krueger, another character he created.
- In The Shining, Jack can be seen wearing a shirt that says "Stovington" — the name of the school Jack taught at in the novel.
- In Signs, the alien caught on camera is purposely posed like the famous Bigfoot picture.
- In Get Out, Rose hangs up the photos of her ex-boyfriends that Chris discovered earlier.
- In A Quiet Place, the aisles in the pharmacy are empty except for the chips section, because they make too much noise.
- In Insidious: Chapter 2, the VCR label has letters scratched out, so instead of Panasonic it reads, "Panic." 22 Cool Little Details In Horror Movies That'll Make You Want To Rewatch Immediately
