Why Do People Like Horror Movies?

Sometimes, people like horror movies because they feel excited when they're scared. It's like going on a rollercoaster, you're nervous at first, but then you laugh and have fun afterwards. When the movie ends, you might even feel proud of yourself for watching it all the way through.

When you watch a scary movie, your body gets ready to fight or run away. This makes your heart beat faster and your face get all sweaty, but it also feels amazing! People like that feeling because it's thrilling.
