I'm tempted to say all settings are scary to me but that's because I'm a wimp with an over active imagination. So I'll narrow mine down to...to as few as I can
1. Secluded forests. First there's the whole secluded thing which means if anything nasty happens no one is likely to know or help. Second, secluded forests are a common dumping ground for corpses. Which means you run the chance of either finding a corpse or catching a killer in the midst of burying one...neither is fun in my book! Not to mention all the critters that can lurk there unknown to humans...
2. The Water. For the same reasons as the secluded forests only deeper.
3. Houses. This is for a few reasons. The first is the home is considered a sanctuary - someplace safe. But is it? From the stats I've seen from law enforcement agencies more assaults and murders take place in the home than any other place with outbuildings (on your own property) ranking a close second and then public areas trailing a distant 3rd. The very idea of a killer/critter or hostile entity invading the homespace is chilling. Second, although I think a lot of places can hold memories I believe houses are more prone to this than any other place. Kind of creepy...
What are the top scariest settings to you?
