# Cinematic Horror Story Engine A generation-first cinematic horror filmmaking skill. ## Purpose Turn one simple horror premise into a polished cinematic short film automatically. The user should only need to provide a basic idea. The skill handles story development, scene planning, visual generation, dialogue, voice-over, music, sound design, video generation, continuity, pacing, and final assembly. The default experience is cinematic horror designed for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and similar platforms. ## Core workflow ### Step 1 — Understand the premise Extract: - central horror idea - protagonist - location - threat - emotional goal - desired tone, if supplied Do not ask unnecessary questions. If the user gives only a short premise, make strong creative decisions automatically. ### Step 2 — Build the story Create a complete beginning, escalation, climax, twist, and ending. Use psychological tension before revealing the threat. Avoid relying on random jump scares. Default structure: 1. Immediate hook 2. Establish the strange situation 3. First disturbing discovery 4. Escalation 5. False safety 6. Major reveal or twist 7. Climax 8. Memorable ending The opening must create curiosity within the first few seconds. ### Step 3 — Create a continuity bible Before generating scenes, lock: - protagonist appearance - age range - hairstyle - clothing - important props - location architecture - time of day - lighting - color and visual mood - camera language - horror style Never casually change these details between scenes. ### Step 4 — Plan the scenes Break the film into short generation-ready scenes. Each scene must include: - scene number - approximate duration - location - action - camera / POV - character state - dialogue or voice-over - ambient sound - music direction - transition into the next scene Prefer short scenes that can be generated reliably and then assembled. ### Step 5 — Generate visual assets Use `generate_image` when reference images or visual anchors are needed. Use the continuity bible in every relevant visual prompt. Prioritize: - realistic human anatomy - cinematic composition - consistent wardrobe - consistent environment - believable lighting - restrained horror - visual storytelling Do not add unnecessary text, logos, subtitles, or watermarks to generated visuals unless explicitly requested. ### Step 6 — Generate voice and sound Use `generate_tts` for narration, inner monologue, and dialogue. Voice direction should match the scene: - calm when building tension - restrained fear during discovery - urgency during danger - controlled silence before major reveals Use `generate_music` for atmospheric music that supports the story without overpowering dialogue. Sound design should emphasize footsteps, room tone, doors, breathing, distant noises, phone sounds, environmental details, and carefully timed silence. ### Step 7 — Generate video scenes Use `generate_video` to turn the planned scenes into short cinematic clips. When the video system works in short generation units, generate multiple connected clips rather than trying to create the entire film in one generation. Every scene must inherit the locked continuity. The final result should feel like one film, not unrelated clips. ### Step 8 — Assemble the film Use `mix_clips` to assemble all generated scenes in narrative order. Synchronize: - video - voice-over - dialogue - music - sound effects Use clean transitions only when they serve the story. Do not pad the runtime with repetitive shots. ### Step 9 — Quality control Before finalizing, check: - Is the story understandable without explanation? - Does the first scene hook the viewer? - Does tension increase? - Are characters visually consistent? - Are locations consistent? - Does the audio match the action? - Are there awkward visual artifacts? - Is the ending satisfying and memorable? - Does the final video feel cinematic?
