Occasionally at nine o'clock, I saw Zuo Bank reading an article "Afraid, and Happy - Why We Love Watching Horror Movies": "The basic assumption of the theory that explains and predicts people's behavior is that people want to pursue happiness and stay away from pain. Why do people like Watching a horror movie? There are generally two explanations: One theory is that people are not actually frightened by the film, but excited; , Edward Andrade of the University of California and Joel Cohen of the University of Florida argue that neither theories hold water. Andrade and Cohen say: "Both theories assume People cannot experience negative and positive emotions at the same time. We believe that people should reconsider both explanations, and the assumption that people cannot experience both negative and positive emotions is false. In other words, they argue, horror movie audiences are happy to enjoy the "unhappy." This novel emotional experience explains that people experience both negative and positive emotional experiences—people actually enjoy being frightened, Not only enjoy the relief of a long sigh of relief after the threat is lifted.

There is a ghost in the heart, or there is no ghost in the heart. Good and evil, reality and illusion, rationality and irrationality once erased the boundaries between each other, and the chaotic, indescribable, chaotic and unpredictable realm represented by irrationality is, to some extent, a kind of projection. Just like Freud's interpretation of the death instinct, it projects the ultimate of human nature, the deepest subconscious of human beings. The concept of "knowing oneself", I believe, will become an eternal topic that haunts the same way as the meaning of life.
