A lot of people have a love-hate relationship with scary movies. They love the thrill of watching them but afterwards remain scared silly. And often it's the most simpliest of things like going down in a basement or visiting dark places where the mind races with scary thoughts. Is someone peeking in the window, looking at you, but you can't see them? Or perhaps there's something hiding in the dark closet? It's not unusual for tweens or teens to be scared when trick-or-treating at night in their Halloween costume. Whether it's Halloween night when the neighborhood is filled with children dressed in their scariest kids costumes or just going down to the basement to find something, the situations are endless.
