The Spookiest Places

Christina Valhouli at Forbes.com writes on why people like to be scared, for which psychologists have plenty of explanations. Some believe it is cathartic, while some consider it to be a learning-experience – meaning getting scared from a horror movie or something spooky prepares themselves to face real-life frightening situations.

Fear not only involves emotional but also physical reactions. Fear is believed to produce endorphins, which produce a natural high. The next time you see someone addicted to performing dangerous activities such as bungee jumping, or diving off an airplane or riding roller coasters, you’ll know the reason behind such dangerous behavior.

Some people prefer to have a real experience of sweats and chills, besides watching horror films all alone in the dark. One of the best alternatives is to travel to spooky places like cemeteries or castles or even catacombs. Here’s a map of few spooky places that one could visit and get high, as listed at Forbes.
