like for example, you mentioned it happening when you watch guys exploring abandoned places.
so could you be say, freaked out by horror because their are ghosts in it?
or maybe it's just because of the reality of it all.
you watch something and think you know, that could, happen to me- that actually be me in that situation
I can't say.
though I don't enjoy horror, I don't have the affect from it you seem to do.
i'm just replying because I care and want to try to help

I don't have anything in particular honestly. There are generic things like the supernatural - ghosts/possession stuff etc. I'm not
scared of serial killer murderers and psychopath type stuff, but I still couldn't watch a film based around it. I think it's got something to do with suspense and not knowing whats around me - walking away from my bathroom, I get the sense something is behind me etc.
It's frustrating because I love the concept of horror. I love the dark and I'm not consciously afraid of much. But my anxiety takes over and my instinctual reaction is to be scared... I hate it.
