Does Jaws not count? Boat at the docks/marina?
Didn't a marina also have a role in I Know What You Did Last Summer?
Last House on the Left....err, maybe Right?
Kristen Stewart made that remake of When a Stranger Calls, but I don't recall the uniqueness of the house.
Wax House? From that Paris Hilton remake of a vintage horror flick.
Bates Motel anyone? Or, from the same source material, Texas Chainsaw farm? and the house with the insects and pit in it from Silence of the Lambs? Jason, Mike Meyers and Elm St were already mentioned from the same source material. I don't think using the actual source of all those storylines would register with most, so a remote farm in the center of Wisconsin (and, in the geographical center of the northern west hemisphere) wouldn't really suit.
Not exactly film, but the mansion in Clue would be ID'd by most anybody from before video games.
Dracula's castle?
A Hostel with hot babes and torture dungeon?
There was that wierd place in (I think) Jeepers? Or was it Joyride?
Several stories had mines, right? I think Valentine's Day, April Fool's would be possible there.
What was the High School where everybody was getting killed, like at Prom? with Jill Schoelen?
Which School did Carrie go to?
I can't think of any scary airports, train stations, or nearby military bases. Is Aracniphobia in your genre?
Wicker Man was on an island, was it not?
The grocery store from The Mist.
I could point out, from an above comment, that almaost every "fully functioning town" has an abandoned area.
Naming someplace after the ships in either Alien or Aliens would be cool, even if they don't have Aliens - perhaps a robotized function called Bishop?

Thanks JSF.
Some there that we hadn't thought of.
I already had the Bates Motel in my first post.
Schools will all come under one location but with different events happening at them like BTVS, Carrie etc.
Same with hospitals that just have to have a closed off/abandoned wing.
Jaws is definitely in as it is a coastal town.
Wax House will probably make it as part of a theme park type area.
I'll probably add a haunted train station in as well.
Arachnophobia is a great idea that I hadn't thought of so many thanks for that.
The Mist's grocery store is another and they have a military base as well, although you don't actually see it.
And as Joyride was mainly on the road I think you mean Jeepers Creepers as that had a lonely house with a cave where the baddie kept the bodies.

There's this really creepy mausoleum in a little movie called Phantasm you might wanna use. But you might have to duck a lot.
I think it's in Morningside Cemetery.

The Haunting of Hill House (I think is the title.) The ORIGINAL (B&W) not the remake.
