Sometimes it works out, though!

From a very early age, my parents let me watch increasingly scary stuff thinking I'd eventually hit a limit on what I could handle, but I feel like even as a youngster I was pretty aware that it was not real. Never got nightmares or anything like that. Horror movies and scary sci-fi movies were always my favorites and I still love them to this day.
