The History of Satanism / satanic murder with art
'Satanic Panic' was actually a common term used mainly in North America in the 1980's where cults were becoming an issue, the term first came out by the publication of the book, 'Michelle remembers' written by a psychaitrist. Numerous allegations were formed around cults mainly focused on abuse and in extreme cases abduction and used as human sacrifices. This information can be used in our group as it gives us more context to how we could portray the body to make it clear that it was a satanic/ cult attack. There are many ways we could do this, the most stereotypical symbol used is a star with a circle around it, but to have more of a variety we could use any of the ones below.
Because we have quite a lot of extra time in the 2 minuets we were thinking of doing blank screens combined with font titles which are related to the symbols that the man is seeing everywhere, and also adding a symbol into the dead body's forehead and maybe on her costume.
A case study of an 11 gear old girl, quotes that she was forced to drink human blood & eat human flesh and was given drugs to make her hypervigilant in a 'secret cave'. Obviously we only catch a glimpse of the dead body and we aren't going to show her being forced to do anything by the creature that has killed her but this could give us an idea of some props to use, such as we could have a empty glass next to her that once had blood in it.
Our group has decided that our symbols will play an important part in fitting nicely into the horror convention so doing research on these will hopefully help us get a better understanding of what happens and what props we can include to make it look more realistic
