to me big smiles are so synonymous with horror that fails to be scary that i think if you put me in a creepy room saw-style with a blood splattered smiley face on the wall i would calm down a bit. because it indicates a person trying too hard to be sickos and scary. it’s a bit of a cutiepie trait. but if it was a blood splattered frowny face i’d get scared because then i know they mean business

fun alternative: cruise ships. cruise ships exploit workers and can pollute as much as a million cars on a daily basis while dumping endless shit into the ocean and endangering all passengers on board because the on board air quality rivals some of the most polluted cities in the world while being a breeding ground for disease. cruise ships deserve to have negativity associated with them

mamoru:

stop using hospitals as horror settings

also all crimes commited aboard a cruise ship is under the juristiction of whichever country they’re registered to once they’re a certain distance away from land so you have the added bonus of the crimes being very unlikely to be properly investigated (due to usually being physically so very far from the actual police whose juristiction they’re under)

terrifying!

On top of THAT cruise ships tend to have their own morgue, as people tend to die on ships all the time. Good for those spooky scenes.

plus u can just like…leave a hospital. good luck escaping a killer or a monster or a curse or w/e in the middle of the fucking ocean

As an ex cruise ship employee, let me give you some stuff to work with!

Water tight doors! You get a special training video on interacting with these correctly because they will literally cut you in half if you try and go through them while they’re closing!

Freezer vaults for food in the sub decks - you can only get into these with the correct code and they have very thick walls. Good luck if you get shut in one of these just after the last round of checks bucko

There are cameras everywhere…except in the crew cabin corridors. Also there are no windows down there because unless you’re an officer, you live below the waterline. Day and night have no meaning because everything is in the same slightly unsettling yellow light.

Don’t piss off the guys who deal with the rubbish. They have machines down there that can crush metal barrels

As well as morgues, cruise ships usually have one basic operating theatre with all the attendant horrifying equipment in it

One cigarette thrown carelessly in the wrong place WILL start a fire that will gut half the ship.

When we’re pitching side to side, the anchor swings out and then back in, striking the metal outer shell with a noise that shakes half the ship

People disappear overboard more often than you’d really want to be a thing

A lot of cruise ships now have theatres on board (usually towards the front) with all the potential for dark corners, creepy costumes and electrical calamities you could want.

And as op says, you can’t really escape a ship in the middle of the ocean. Particularly during a storm, as then you can’t even evacuate to lifeboats unless the whole ship is going down. On the upside being on board during a storm means most guests hide in their cabins and the staff walk around like drunks, which would likely throw off a skilled murderer’s plans.

Takes notes

You also have the bonus of a corporate overlord who doesn’t give a shit about anything but profits and can be reliably counted on to downplay any disaster in an attempt to avoid publicity.

Norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships show just how fast a highly contagious virus spreads, how hard it is to avoid catching it due to surface contamination and food transmission, and how disgusting the ship rapidly becomes. Unnavigable with filth. (Seriously I won’t go into it but accounts are sometimes horrific.)

If you want a zombie virus outbreak or something like that, a cruise ship could create up to NINE THOUSAND infected. (Based on the capacity of the current largest cruise ship.)

  1. so, you can also rent cruise ships for private events, so if a rich weirdo wants to do a ghost hunting party, you’re set. (thinking house on haunted hill). Or a ghost hunter convention on a haunted ship!
  2. it’s super easy to get turned around on a cruise ship, according to my friend who has been on one. The halls are very samey- some ships have systems to designate what side of the ship you’re on, and the numbers should indicate deck, but if you’re drunk…
  3. (some people decorate their doors so they’re easier to find, although I imagine that some cruise ship lines frown on this kind of thing.)
  4. point is, a chase scene? thinking you’re almost to your room but whoops you’re on the wrong side of the ship/wrong deck? or maybe taking a while to realize you’re being led in circles… but by what?
  5. you can use seasickness as a plot point- staying on deck is good for someone who’s seasick, so maybe the character sees something they otherwise wouldn’t whilst trying to tame their seasickness. maybe they miss some mass-spreader zombie event because they’re sleeping off seasickness meds. seasickness is actually great because it can be debilitating but usually wears off in 24 hours, so you can have someone be pretty sick and then bounce back and be running in terror with relative ease.
  6. decommissioned cruise ship for sale. the rich weirdos strike again. (journalist following rich weirdos on their creepy cruise ship social experiment/crypto thing/cult thing, perhaps, at least one of which I know was attempted)

honestly, there’s so many possibilities
