I'm looking at different ways to portray nightmares, and an effective less is more technique which tends to creep people out is the use of shadows. Purely because of the fact that you can see something which isn't being shown in which the shadow is giving an illusion of what may be lurking around but it isn't always what it appears to be.
The reason in why shadows are so effective I personally believe is because of the fact their around us all the time because of our reliance on sources of light. An example would be having clothes on the side of your room projecting a shadow as if someone is in the room with you.
