Horror Movie Settings

The first thing that pops into my head when I think of horror movie settings is a woods. So many horror films today use the woods as there main setting. Not exactly sure why they do, but my best guess would be because the woods is basically in the middle of no where and that makes it easier for the killer to get away because there is no one else around to help. The second place that comes to mind when I think horror movies would be a carnival or theme park. This is probably where everyone gets there fear of clowns because of all the horror movies made at a carnival, that make the clown the "bad guy". These are just a couple of different places that horror movies can take place, the list could pretty much go on forever due to the fact that any place could be scary just depending on its looks.
