This research aims to analyze the scenography focused on the literature of fear for children and young people, based on three pillars: fear, the concept of scenography and illustration. Through the union between effective description and transposition of verbal text to image, with the addition of different elements such as colors, lines or any other types of techniques, an entire universe is ready to receive the reader and, as the story unfolds, this space can change. This research journey begins in the forests of traditional tales, a mysterious place and the habitat of several feared creatures, visits castles and places that must not be discovered, travels through the Brazilian forests and farms where live myths and legends equally scary, reaches the city with its characteristic dangers and false sense of security behind the walls, paying special attention to graveyards, a citadel within the urban space that shelter countless eternal homes. Through bibliographic research and comparative analysis, this dissertation focuses on contemporary fictional texts that, according to our research, have characteristics that approximate the necessary elements for the production of the scenography of fear. Several authors are part of this selection, such as Anabella López, Georgina Martins, Roger Mello and Simon Prescott, having as theoretical basis the works of Nelly Novaes Coelho, Maria Nikolajeva and Carole Scott, Rui de Oliveira, Carlos Reis and Fred Botting. It is hoped, with this work, to contribute to the studies of literature, bringing together the researchs of gothic and fear, in general, to children's and youth literature and their monsters and scary places representations, with the aim of showing that it is also necessary the approach of several stories, in a playful way, through terror/horror.
