Is it normal to be turned on by the horror genre (i am a male)

If it involves fit women wearing studded skintight leather outfits & whips, I'm in.

About as normal as any other fetish

I think it is. :)

I got turned on while watching the new IT movie. never really watched any horror movies before. ill start watching some and get back to you

Really haven't heard this before but if it gets you going Ilike it.

I am female and I am often turned on while watching horror movies. My boyfriend likes this genre so much and usually we are watching them together. Not every movie but many times its like a combination of fear and arousal together.

Probably not so common, but there are stranger things out there to be into.

Not a guy but actually "into" certain horror concepts myself.. things like mind control, body horror, eldritch themes...

There are so many undertones of sexuality in the horror genre. The attractive female protagonist running with her clothes in tatters, the facial expressions, the sexual symbolism of something like the Alien franchise.. sex and horror have always gone hand in hand with one another, it only makes sense that people will make those associations and take them to that next level of fetishization.

Boo!

I think so, but I don't know what it is called.
