Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,speaking. As a horror researcher
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I've thought about it a lot. Why do we do
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it? Why do we watch horror films and

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a kind of entertainment that's designed to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,spook people. To make them scream and

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,dollars. It's weird it's weird because
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,horror is by definition designed to make
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,its audience feel bad. A good horror film
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,inspires negative emotion. It makes us
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,feel disgust and dread and terror and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,anxiety and fear. Let me ask you how many

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,time? Show of hands. Please raise your
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,hand if you sometimes seek out horror. Okay
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's about half, that matches my own
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,research along with some colleagues. I'm
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,looking into the personality profile of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,horror fans and we're finding that more than
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,half for about 54% answer in the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,affirmative in response to the statement:
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I tend to enjoy horror media. Only 29%

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the remaining 17% can't make up
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,their mind. You know they're probably the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ones who would die first in a horror
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,film. Next would be the ones who say
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they don't like horror. Anyway people really
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,do tend to like the kind of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,entertainment that's designed to make
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,them feel bad. Why is that the case and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,how does horror even work? Those are the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,kinds of questions I've been researching
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and here is what I have found out. Horror,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in whatever medium, from films and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,literature to video games and virtual
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,reality, works by exploiting an ancient
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and evolved set of biological defense
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,mechanisms. Let's call it the evolved
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fear system. If we want to understand how
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that system works and why it became part
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of human nature we have to look at the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,evolutionary history of our species.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, our evolutionary ancestors found
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,themselves in a world that was full of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,danger. There was the threat from
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,predators and creepy crawlies and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,invisible microorganisms or disease and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the threat from other humans. In response
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to those dangers our ancestors gradually
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,evolved a
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fear system that would keep them alert
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and alive. In other words our species
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,evolved to be hyper vigilant and highly
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fearful because being hyper vigilant and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,highly fearful kept our ancestors alive
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in a dangerous world. The world may now
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,be less dangerous than it was in
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ancestral times at least in terms of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,predation. We're not in any immediate
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,danger of being attacked by a
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,saber-tooth cat on our way home from
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,work, but we are no less vigilant and no
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,less fearful
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than our evolutionary ancestors and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,horror entertainment takes advantage of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that aspect of human nature. So horror
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,entertainment works by transporting us
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,imaginatively into virtual worlds that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are full of danger. In horror films and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,literature we follow and mirror
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,protagonists as they confront terrifying
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,threats. Take Stephen King's The Shining
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for example, here we follow a family who
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,has snowed in at a haunted hotel. In the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,novel's most famous scene the young boy
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Danny goes into room 217.

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,killed herself some years before. The
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,hotel is now supposed to be empty of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,guests but to Danny surprise there is
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,somebody in the bathtub or something. To

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,purple and with glassy white eyes. She's
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,rotting like meat festering in the trash.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then she starts to get up. King provides
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a detailed and really vivid description
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of this moving corpse and as readers we
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are forced to hold that image in our
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,minds. That's bad enough but we're also
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,given a detailed description of Danny's
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,response to the situation. We learned

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We are made to mirror his fear and
