This past week my boyfriend somehow convinced me to go see 'Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark.' Now I don't know about you, but I absolutely hate scary movies. I don't watch them, I basically do my best to stay away from them at all costs. I still am not quite sure how he convinced me to go see a horror movie, but somehow he did. After seeing this movie I told him I am never watching a scary movie with him ever again.

Now I know this is something that a ton of people love; heck my stepdad absolutely loves horror movies. He has to have his own Netflix profile because my mom and I absolutely despise them. I don't get the intrigue of horror movies. You are basically choosing to freak yourself out during and after the movie itself is over. Not only does the movie freak you out, but the fact that you tend to stay on edge for a while after the movie is over. I know for me part of it is I don't like looking over my shoulder and scary movies definitely do that to me.

There are so many reasons as to why I will never watch a horror movie again, but the number one reason is that I don't enjoy them. If I am going to watch a movie, I want it to be something that I will enjoy. Horror movies are something that I do not enjoy. Also, I would like to not give myself a heart attack every few minutes throughout the movie.

For those of you out there who love horror movies, more power to you! It is such a unique and expansive genre that can have so much done in it. It really lends to the imagination of the creator, but I will leave those movies for you. If you need me I will be over here with my Disney and Hallmark movies.

The world of film allows for so much to be done, especially in today's times. However, this does add to how much and how far someone can go when creating a horror movie. Compared to the way horror movies used to be, current horror movies level of graphics and effects have grown immensely. This does, however, make them even more terrifying than they were before. So when it comes to that I will leave it to the horror movie buffs.

The extent of my dislike of scary movies even goes as far as an extreme hatred of haunted houses, fear farms, etc. I am definitely the person who will punch someone in those if I get scared. So that is why I will leave the horror to my boyfriend and stepdad and I'll be over here watching a Hallmark movie with my mom and drinking a glass of wine. If you need me you will find me there, and not anywhere near any horror movie ever again.
