What piano chords create a haunting theme?

Q. So I'm somewhat new in piano. I want to create a scary/creepy/haunting theme for a piano song with chords.

here's a great example (the first minute)

Thanks for your support!

A. Alternate (slowly) F# to C chords, and improvise a spooky melody around it.

If you want some dramatic thrusts, diminished 7th chords will work, you know, like C combined with Eb, Gb and A.

Original Question

How are the names of piano chords determined?
Q. For example, why is A diminished seventh called that?
Thank you to those who answered the questions. And my apologies for placing this in the wrong section if it really upset the lot of you enough to have commented on that mistake.

A. Generally, in music, a diminished chord is a chord which has a diminished fifth in it. More specifically, it is a three-note chord (a diminished triad) consisting of a minor third and diminished fifth above the root â if built on C, a diminished chord would have a C, an Eb and a Gb. The interval between the upper two notes is also a minor third â thus, the chord consists of two minor thirds stacked on top of one another. It resembles a minor triad with a lowered (or diminished) fifth.

A diminished 7th chord adds the 7th scale tone (major or minor 7th) to this triad.

Original Question

how do you play the piano chord E Flat minor 6 9?
Q.

A. Eb, Gb, Bb, C, and F. I like this one.
