Location

Originally we wanted a traditional old looking building for the set for our video to give an authentic look which we could make into our "haunted" house. We wanted to use Leith Hill house which is owned by the National Trust and is empty and nearby so it would have been great. We found many disadvantages with the house though and realised we would have to actually book an appointment to check out the place which wasn't good for us as we would have to make a few visits. We also realised that as the house is bare we would have to supply our own furniture which would be pretty much impossible.

We also realised that we would have lighting problems and would have to hire a generator.

Eventually we just came to a decision to use Courtney's house as it was ideal and close to school. The setting inside the house was also ideal as there is a great staircase and many rooms that we could use. This also means that we can make the house look how we wanted to with furniture and decorations.
