The Psychology of Horror or thrill .

 Horrors or thrill are made up to help us cope with the real ones.

Fear is an unpleasant emotion we usually do our best to avoid.

“As a kid, I adored anything scary – ghosts, monsters, mummies, you name it,”

it’s not enough to throw together a bunch of ghosts or monsters. Horror stories have been around since prehistoric people tried to explain the things that go bump in the night.

“Horror has its quintessential themes,”

Children of all ages might enjoy horror, but they don’t enjoy the same kinds of horror. Stories for younger children tend to balance fear with humor. Plots are spooky but not terrifying. Teen novels, on the other hand, can include more gore and death. Writers have to find the right balance for their books.

HUMANS ARE OBSESSED WITH DEATH.

Fear the Walking Dead. Why are you drawn to the horrible sounding creatures who just won’t stop in their quest to eat you (and possibly make you one of their own)? Humanity has always been interested in death and what happens when our lives end.

Literally Speaking ,I cant stand seeing the blood spattered stuff .

It gives me goose bumps and could presumably lead me to being unconscious ..

When it comes to scary movies, the “you either love them or hate them” cliché is never truer.

The lure of horror.

Fear coils in your stomach and clutches at your heart. It’s an unpleasant emotion we usually do our best to avoid. Yet across the world and through time people have been drawn irresistibly to stories designed to scare them.

Conclusion..

Who wants to be afraid?

Psychology can help explain why horror takes the persistent form that it does, but that still leaves the question of why we should want to scare ourselves through fiction in the first place. One suggestion is that, like play, it allows us to rehearse possible threatening scenarios from a position of relative safety. ‘Movie monsters provide us with the opportunity to see and learn strategies of coping with real-life monsters should we run into them, despite all probabilities to the contrary,’ says Fischoff. ‘A sort of covert rehearsal for… who knows what.’ Despite its fantastical elements, Clasen explains that successful horror fiction is usually realistic in its portrayals of human psychology and relationships. ‘That’s where horror matters,’ Clasen says; ‘that’s where horror can teach us something truly valuable.’

I believe that we should go for since it emboldens us to that extent .
