Fear Expert – Larry Fessenden | Brain Games

I don’t know anybody who’s fully sane
who isn’t afraid fear is an essential
component to life it keeps you on your
guard and in the truth philosophical way
it keeps you appreciating life a fear in
a sense is reminding you of the threats
out there and therefore reminding you to
appreciate the safety and the comfort
that you’re enjoying at this moment
because at any second it could be taken
away so fear is a it’s a portal into how
lucky you are because it may not last
then you get into how can you scare
people nowadays you’re dealing with the
timing of things you know you slow down
the pace and it makes people anxious
because in the modern world people
expect their edits to come quickly and
they want you know to get to the punch
line you know we live in a shorter and
shorter attention span so I find if you
slow things down you create anxiety it’s
really the unknown that most engages the
horror viewer because in a sense they’re
conjuring the the threat and then once
you see if there’s a sense of relief
you’re like oh well Oh fine oh it has
three arms well that’s scary fine but
you can process it then it’s when it’s
unknown that it’s most fearful
anticipation is really where the fear
lives
