Horror movie is not for all. If you are weak hearted person like me then you should avoid it. Because it can effect on your sleep and daily activities. The negative impacts can be turn into anxiety, hallucination and schizophrenia which are the worst psychological diseases. If it becomes the cause of your panic attacks then don't watch this. It's not suitable genre to you.
Human brain is the most complicated thing. Everyone’s instincts work differently. Those who loves to watch horror movies, horror movies impact positively on their minds.
The author of "The Revolting Child in Horror Cinema" describes "How horror movies works on mind as a therapy". He also says that this is called "Surrogacy Theory". Horror movies surrogate us which helps to think about death.
In theatres or at home which movies we saw by our interest after neglecting the fear. It means that we enjoy movies more than fear. We can overcome our fear which is called Fear Fight. By this we can control our stress. Thus we can face fear and can make us stable. Which is a important life hack.

You can learn to be an practical person in life by it. Because you can make a difference between normal and paranormal world.
