Doing some twist on cliches will be good, but the show probably doesn't have the time to spread its wings to do so if it doesn't ramp up the tension, etc.

Amy isn't a very good example as she seemed a tad worse than some of the others who stood in shadow because we already knew her story and it was filled with cliches and a slight dark twist. She was the New Girl cliche and she didn't move beyond that. She's essentially a more emotional Bella Swan right now (stuck between Edward and Jacob...I mean Garrett).

The creepy janitor thing was more funny than scary, but maybe this show will be unintentionally a comedy XD.

Once started with a cool premise and everything in SB felt eerie and honestly, more scary than DoS, as did Lost. DoS's premise feels to be "Typical 80's summer camp that's haunted...ooohhhahhhh".
