okay so this is not an ‘official’ metric by any scale but i am curious so i just bullshitted my own (explanation on levels under the poll)

level 1 - can’t tolerate horror at all, actively avoids it at all costs

level 2 - will watch a horror movie with friends/family if convinced but will definitely not enjoy it. screams at jumpscares and covers eyes at tense moments

level 3 - can occasionally consume horror media. very easily startles at jumpscares. usually feels anxious/paranoid afterward

level 4 - startles at jumpscares and generally feels uneasy after consuming horror media. avoids anything horror-related at night time

level 5 - jumpscares are less effective, but can still startle. feels anxious during tense moments. horror mostly causes unease only at night time

level 6 - has no problem consuming any kind of horror media alone at night. is largely unaffected by jumpscares. horror causes no feeling of fear or anxiety

consuming horror was my childhood. thanks dad. thanks bro. hahaha i'm still not as cool as them though so lv 5 almost to 6. but i binge horror when i'm in the mood and sometimes i read them to sleep i always say nothing's scarier than real life so horror genre is actually a pretty good escape to look into your own fears. it's cool not a fan of jumpscare though. they're based on reflexes. i LOVE psychological horror the most and a bit of body horror (i LOVE junji ito) ♡ reblog ♡
