What is behind the phenomenon of horror? What makes it so fascinating? Horror fan and journalist Tal Zimmermann sets out to discover the attraction that horror has for so many people. He explores the true background of the world's horror fan base to understand why we enjoy being scared so much. Horror is a worldwide phenomenon, although many horror fans are also misunderstood. Why? The frightening, horrific images in the news disturb them as much as the non-horror fan - while at the same time they seek out gory and violent images in movies, comics and games. We accompany Tal Zimmermann on his journey into a dark and fascinating world, where he meets the greatest horror icons in person for a conversation.
