Crawling out of the grave

Most people love ghost stories. Whether you read it, hear it, or watch it, horror stories have a unique relationship with our psychology and emotions.

Whether it’s vampires, werewolves, zombies, skinwalkers, wendigos, creepy mythical creatures, or psycho killers, horror stories capture our imagination and take us to a world that we might never experience in reality. These not only scare us but also make us feel excited.

Whether you are a fan of Stephen King or H. P. Lovecraft or even these creepy two sentence horror stories, reading a scary story, especially in the dark of the night, releases a good load of dopamine in our brains that boost the feelings of pleasure and activates our body for something exciting.

Feeling scared through a fictional story enables us to explore the deepest corners of our fear while being in a safe and controlled environment.

As we invest ourselves in this spooky fictional world, we experience a sudden rush of excitement by pretending to face and overcome a great evil along with the protagonist of the story.

Horror stories and scary ghost stories are designed to create an atmosphere of suspense and terror inside our heads and we can quickly escape that terrifying world simply by closing the book. This ability to escape the real world as well as the scary fictional world whenever we want makes horror stories even more exciting and popular.
