So what makes a horror movie actually scary? According to a brainy psychology guy, Dr. Donald Riggio, it's all about our primal fear of dying. Yup, most horror flicks play with that big scary feeling like it’s on repeat.
He also says the dark is a huge deal — not the darkness itself, but what might be lurking in it. Remember being scared of the closet? Same vibe.
And suspense? That's like the secret sauce. It keeps us guessing and jumpscares pop out when you least expect 'em. Dr. Riggio even pointed to the classic "shower scene" in Psycho as the ultimate jolt-maker. Goosebumps!
But why do we actually like watching stuff that freaks us out? Turns out, it’s partly about curiosity and testing our bravery in a no-risk zone. Horror movies kinda show us what our fears look like, letting us face the spooky stuff from a comfy couch.
Some folks enjoy the cringe-worthy moments thanks to something called 'schadenfreude' - basically, feeling a bit good watching others' bad luck. So if you love horror, you might have a little thrill-seeker personality sneaking out!
If horror movies aren’t your fave solo time, never fear! Watching with friends turns the scary into a bonding fest. Bonus: it's a sneaky way to snuggle up on a date night with plenty of chills (and thrills).
