Response to Kim

Kim asked on her blog:
Why do you think people enjoy horror?  

I think people like to fantasize about it all. I fell like it's that whole deal with car accidents, and people slow down to look at them because they are nosy. This might be more relative to the gore, but I think that it is a part of horror, and people like to be scared by what they perceive as the impossible. Also, I think it makes people feel better about themselves when it is happening to others and not them. It is an interesting topic, and I don't know if it could ever be fully determined.
