To anyone familiar with gothic literature and movies, dark hallways and corridors are nothing new. Then again, it is one thing to watch such settings on-screen. It is not until one actually experiences a dark hallway that one realizes how terrifying such a space can be for the inhabitants of a house, or even to a guest.
