I think one of the appeals of suspense is to safely explore our innermost fears.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think suspense is a big thing.
Fear is exciting for me.
There is a fascination with fear. It grabs our attention.
Suspense is very important. Even though this is humor and they're short stories, that theory of building suspense is still there.
Suspense arises naturally from good writing - it's not a spice to be added separately.
I think people like to be scared. I think people like tension and suspense in a movie.
In later life, we don't easily talk of fears, but instead we discuss our 'concerns.' Fear seems too primal and hysterical, but concern is polite and intellectual and nicely under control.
I definitely love to be scared. It draws the primal side out of you.
Fear is the foundation of safety.
Suspense is worse than disappointment.
