Explanation:
One way to tame, to domesticate our primitive fears is to
give them shape and confront them vicariously, to witness
the hero’s combat with them … The way we deal with
modern fears is to understand them; role-playing in
encounter groups to confront our own personality problems
is similar to our interaction with tales of horror; but the
continuing appeal of tales in which the emphasis is more on
confrontation than understanding suggests that for some
people understating is not enough. Because we can not
totally always repress our fear of death and the unknown,
such tales give us opportunities for facing them with only
imagined danger.
