Inspiration 5 - The Shining Staircase Scene

In mimicking this scene from this classic horror, we hope to add to the 'mind-trip' effect on our protagonist in the same way it does in the original. It is at this point in the film when the madness really begins to hit the female lead, and she starts to hallucinate and see some very strange and bizarre things. We believe this is an excellent example to use as a guidance to creating this effect and aim to re-create the section where the female lead runs frantically up a winding staircase, wielding a large kitchen knife, and upon her ascent, comes across two characters performing unspeakable acts on one another in a near-by bedroom. We believe the effective use of costumes helps to add to the strange and irregular situation.
