Eerie Arctic Research Station | comment |
A classic setting for mystery and horror stories. A remote lab or research station out in the far north or south surrounded by ice, snow, and more ice. You hear a clanking sound out in the laboratory unit, but the wind is howling at gale force and there's a blizzard, so you leave checking on it till tomorrow. Then the power and radio goes out... It has several key attributes to ramp up the tension and fear: If something nasty is in the research station, you can't just flee. Going outside without proper clothes is likely to kill you. Snow storms make visibility poor and can easily take out key infrastructure such as communications and make helicopter travel infeasible. Even if you do have proper clothes, there is little to go to since the place is far from much of anything. On the plus side, as a research station, you can find all sorts of specialized equipment around. If you're trying to "solve problems", the decades of accumulated surplus gear and tools makes MacGyvering an Improvised Weapon or DIY radio feasible. As a research/exploration facility in a very cold climate, you can find even more specialized equipment around (flamethrowers, dynamite), so if some researcher has gone Ax-Crazy or if there's a predatory creature, they have more self-defense options. As an inhospitable location, people don't go there because it's convenient, but because they have a purpose (or because they were forced to). The ice can hold all sorts of treasure and secrets hidden within it. Even if communications are working, calling for help might not do anything. By the time a rescue chopper arrives, everyone could already be dead. A form of Closed Circle and often a Safely Secluded Science Center. Compare Bleak Border Base and Space Isolation Horror. Add Polar Madness for extra eeriness. Examples |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Dr. Vivienne Graham doesn't have very mellow memories of the times that she was at Outpost 32, the Antarctica research facility monitoring the dormant Ghidorah in the ice. She experienced unnerving hallucinations, feelings of anxiety and of being hunted by the frozen Titan, and at one point she suddenly suffered a bloodshot eye when she video-called Serizawa for help. Other staff also shared Vivienne's episodes of cognitive confusion, sleeping problems, and her inexplicable feeling that Ghidorah was talking to and watching them, if the work rotas weren't rotated regularly; and electronic equipment would often malfunction in intervals. This was all being caused by Ghidorah's psychic and telepathic Brown Note being active while it was frozen. | |

Venom (Vol. 1) kicks off with an evil clone of the Venom symbiote massacring and escaping from the Northern Canadian research station that was studying it. It makes its way to a nearby radar base, jumping from host to host as it looks for one that will last long enough to bring it to civilization. | |

House: Played with in the episode "Frozen", where the A-plot is centered on a female scientist (Mira Sorvino) stationed at a small research outpost in Antarctica suffering from a mystery illness serious enough to make her cough up blood. Because of the impracticality of sending a medical team over, Dr. House and his staff communicate with and diagnose her from the safety of their offices in New Jersey through a satellite feed. House even manages to get into a near-affair with her despite being separated from each other by thousands of miles. | |

The Relic Hunter episode "Under the Ice" had Sydney and Nigel being called to a research facility in the Arctic Circle to inspect and then relocate the unearthed mummy of an Anasazi Native. When they get to the base, they and their two companions, Knowles and Simpson, find the place completely trashed, with the heat off, six of the eight employees dead, and one of them half-dead, with it being gradually revealed that the missing eighth staff member discovered a hibernating Hate Plague in the mummy, which he infected all of his co-workers with to see if the disease would be viable as a WMD. | |

The Twilight Zone (2002) episode "Cold Fusion" is set in a secluded research facility in Nome, Alaska. The facility's staff is supposed to be working on a clean energy project called Gemini, but when the protagonist, Paul Thorson, arrives at the base, he finds it in disarray and largely abandoned outside of four crazy people named Chandler, Gordon, Morgan, and Skyles. It turns out that Paul is actually the head of the facility and the creator of Gemini. His fear over Gemini being weaponized caused him to go insane and murder all of his staff, who he then replaced with hallucinations in the form of the aforementioned Chandler, Gordon, Morgan, and Skyles. In the end, Paul "kills" all four of his delusions before being Driven to Suicide. | |

Ice Station Zebra centers on a lonely Arctic research station that happens to be the closest manned site to where a reconnaissance satellite fell to Earth. Both the Soviet Union and the United States desperately want that satellite, since it managed to photograph secret military sites worldwide before falling out of orbit.

The Resident Evil series has the utterly massive Antarctic Transport Terminal featured in Resident Evil – Code: Veronica. Ironically, of all their known installations, the least amount of research is done in the most isolated of them all — while it has some laboratories it's mostly used as a transport hub for their illicit shipments and thus features a massive warehouse, helicopter landing pad, an airstrip, and vehicle yards, albeit most of it is either buried by the weather or derelict as there's been an outbreak of the virus by the time you get there. | |

Noveria from Mass Effect is an ice-covered planet where corporations are free to conduct research that would be controversial or even illegal on the Citadel space. In the first game, your pursuit of Matriarch Benezia leads to Peak 15, a lab on this planet where scientists were trying to resurrect supposedly extinct creatures but lost contact with the outside world due to said creatures breaking out of control. | |

In Godzilla: King of the Monsters, the secret monster-monitoring organization Monarch maintain bases all over the world, mostly in places where kaiju are known to be in hibernation. The one that keeps them the most nervous is Outpost 32, in Antarctica, where an unidentified creature, dubbed "Monster Zero", is frozen in the ice — actually the film's Big Bad, King Ghidorah. As a fun bit of trivia, Outpost 32's designation is a Shout-Out to The Thing (1982)'s Outpost 31. By Godzilla vs. Kong (set five years later), the station has been repurposed to study the "Vile Vortex", an anomalous gravitational rift in the Earth's crust leading into the monster-filled Hollow World. The close proximity between Ghidorah and the vortex are speculated to be more than coincidental in the novelization. | |

The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms starts at such a location in the Canadian arctic, where the NATO powers are conducting nuclear tests with unpredictable results. Not long after the bomb is detonated, the outpost's radar starts to detect strange movements from something very big out in the icy wasteland. The first glimpse we get of the Beast is obscured by the Arctic snow. | |

In Black Snow (Half-Life 2), your player character John Matsuda is an IT specialist being chugged out to the Amaluuk Research Station in Greenland with several other "IT specialists" to investigate why the station's gone dark a week ago. What's supposed to be a routine service leaves all of your coworkers separated, dead, or worse, and, as nightfall and below-zero temperatures take over the station, leaves you to find out what's happened. | |

In the Animorphs novel "The Extreme", the Animorphs have to destroy a Yeerk facility in the Arctic that is developing a means of turning any body of water into a Yeerk pool using satellite broadcasts. It turns out that the Arctic was chosen so that the Venber, a previously-extinct ice-based species that the Yeerks have resurrected and placed under their control, could be used there. | |

The setting of the first arc of Fate/Grand Order. The exact location is only made entirely clear to the protagonist after they've been living there for a year or so, because they were brought there unaware of where they were even going. The snowy setting gets a bit of focus, especially in the anime adaptations. And it's at least conceptually plenty spooky, considering the fact most of your fellow living human inhabitants die in the prologue. And then the apocalypse happens and instead of the constant snowstorms that usually envelop the base, it's now surrounded by nothing by pitch black sky with a red skyline that is the rest of the Earth incinerated by the Big Bad. Spooky! Surprisingly, it gets a lot more cheerful when a bunch of dead people move in. But the vibes, and especially the mysterious nature of everything that happened before the protagonist arrived, are a little spooky. It becomes a lot nicer in atmosphere when the protagonists save the world and get to enjoy a nice sunny day with clear blue skies. Then it goes right back to being spooky when it's invaded a year later by an army of magic Russian Secret Police and their leader from an Alternate Timeline who slaughter almost everyone there and encase the entire place under tons of ice. | |

The Thing from Another World is set at an Arctic scientific outpost, while the remake The Thing (1982) was set in Antarctica. There are two Antarctic research stations seen in the remake. One is the Norwegian post which discovered the alien spacecraft embedded in the ice crust. The other is the American post which adopts a sled dog that had been fleeing Norwegian commandos. The dog later turns out to be an evil, pleomorphic alien. While trying to learn more about their foe, the Americans visit the Norwegian post, which is found to be a thoroughly burnt and ravaged ruins. Incidentally, it has become traditional for the winter-over team at Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station to watch both movies, as well as The Thing (2011), the latter's prequel, in February after the last flight out before Antarctic winter leaves. |

What's New, Scooby-Doo?: One episode took place at an Antarctic research station after Scooby and the gang went down to accompany a penguin being released into the wild. It's been abandoned after a fish-man kidnapped the lead scientist, who is later found frozen alive, making the stakes feel much higher than the average Scooby-Doo cartoon to add to the creep factor. Turns out the fish-man was his assistant, who did it as his request so that he could be cryogenically frozen and get to witness the future first-hand. | |

In The Magicians, the Fourth Year at Brakebills sends the students to the school's southern campus in Antarctica; technically a school, it's also a magical laboratory and prison for the only staff member in residence, Professor Mayakovsky. A borderline-psychopathic Sadist Teacher, Mayakovksy amps up the creepiness by magically preventing the students from speaking and driving them almost to insanity through a Training from Hell conducted under isolation. For good measure, the Ultimate Final Exam of the year requires students to walk to the South Pole... naked. | |

Doctor Who: The last story featuring the First Doctor, "The Tenth Planet", is set in a base in the middle of Antarctica that gets attacked by Cybermen. "Twice Upon a Time" also reveals that the First Doctor encountered a future self there before his upcoming regeneration. "The Ice Warriors" uses this trope, but technically isn't at one of the poles (it's during an ice age instead). The first two episodes of "The Seeds of Doom" are set in an Antarctic research station, where one of the research team has been taken over by an alien plant creature, and have very strong overtones of The Thing (1982). Which is impressive for something that came out in 1976. "Last Christmas" is set at an Arctic research base where the workers, as well as the Doctor and Clara, are attacked by dream crabs. It later turned out to be a dream caused by the crabs, based on movies that used this trope like The Thing (1982). |

Ravenous (1999) is set in a Bleak Border Base in the Nevada Mountains sometime in the 1840s, when American westward expansion is just beginning — not a research station or at either pole, but its remote location and heavy snowfalls creates a very similar mood. The soldiers at Fort Spencer are, in a sense, at the edge of their world. | |
