    It depends? I know some people who have low tolerance to anything scary/horror or even intensely suspenseful and would lose sleep over some of the things I go to sleep listening to. I don’t truly scare easily, but there are some stories that under the right circumstances will creep me out enough to want some eye bleach before going to bed in the house alone. My favorite is when I have my earbuds set to noise cancelling and I really get into a story and think that someone else in the house is gone or sleeping, then I see them and scare the shit out of myself lol.

      I have a good friend who loves scary movies of all types. He is an adrenaline junkie. He has lived through some terrifying shit that he shrugged off. But creepy writing has him turning on all the lights in his house and calling people to come over.

      Something about it digs in his brain. He’s not even sure why but he said he’s just stopped reading anything remotely disturbing after 3pm.

        When people describe things to me, that I believe they feel are creepy, my eyes get watery. Not sure why
