*shrugs* Odds mean everything to me. If the horror is real, it's bound by real-world rules and real-life odds. I'm not afraid of flying in an airplane, either, because I know I should be more afraid of the ride to the airport than the flight.

Once something isn't bound by real-world rules and real-life odds, all bets are off. The simple fact of being afraid of it may be enough to make it happen. Who knows how it works. If a monster comes for you, it comes for you. You probably can't fight it. You're probably doomed from the start.

AYRT but that's exactly the part that freaks me out--yeah the odds are in my favor, until they're not, you know? It's something that is unlikely to happen, but absolutely COULD, and if it did, there's nothing I could do.

Whereas for a supernatural threat, the odds are equally low, but supernatural monsters usually have some kind of rules for them, too. Hell, usually more rules than "realistic" monsters, and tools that work on them. Ghosts and demons are terrifying, but can be defeated by prayer--not so with a psychotic serial killer.

I'm not saying you're wrong of course, I'm just fascinated by the difference in perspective here!

Yeah!

I love movies about vampires and stuff, because I don't believe in them. Serial killers, on the other hand...
