I love horror movies. Whether it’s an Eli Roth special, a “horror” movie like Jurassic Park (though I don’t totally agree that Jurassic Park movies are horror), campy horror, psychological horror, or something “B-roll” that’s available on Prime – I love them.

Being afraid of the dark and the unknown, I now know, was due to my control freak tendencies: I have a hard time not being in control (hence why I love the Sims), but I also realize that this fear stemmed from a deep lack of confidence in myself. My self-esteem has never been high and I still struggle with self-love, but one day I had this idea to embrace that fear instead of run from it as running from it only gives it more strength and validity. It took awhile, but it worked, and now I can call myself a true horror fan.
