People are often wary of reading or watching anything in the horror genre because in their minds, it's just senseless gore, death and violence. Well, I can tell you from avid experience, that's not what horror is about. The horror genre teaches us that sometimes really bad things happen to really good people, but that hope always prevails in even the darkest of situations. That's a very important lesson, no matter how frightening you think the teacher is, and to be in the top of her class, all you need to do is to go in with an open mind. . Rebecca McNutt
About This Quote

Horror is all about learning to be cautious, but not too cautious. It's about being afraid of the things that are out there in the world, but learning to overcome it. Learning to be cautious, but learning how to overcome and grow stronger. It's about learning to see the things in life that can harm you and worrying about them, but learning to move on and accept something hard and dark in your life.

For example, when we read a scary story we can learn from it and learn what we need to do when such a thing happens in our lives. If we live our lives with caution and fear of what could happen, then we will miss out on many of life's opportunities because we will be nervous and scared all the time, which makes us less likely to take risks.
