Religious psychosis. This would be absolutely terrifying, it’s so scary and it’s a genuine unhealthy obsession with a deity that causes paranoia and delusions, especially mania and psychosis, hallucinations and impulsive decisions.

Alzheimer’s. People are lowkey underestimating how scary losing urself forever is😭. Did u ever get to talk to a temporarily lucid Alzheimer’s patient???? They sound so desperate and haunted I can’t get it out of my head. Wouldn’t wish that disease upon anyone

Post partum psychosis. Imagine being excited to be a mom and then you start hallucinating that your baby is the anti christ but nobody else can see it

It’s short for hexagon :
OCD. Real, true OCD. Not “Everything must be organized and color coded”, but “There are bugs in my skin and I have to cut them out or they’ll lay eggs in my eyes” (Real thought that I had) Not being able to trust your own mind is such a horrifying way to exist

Depersonalization / Derealization disorder. As someone who has this I could name a few instances where it would be horror movie worthy

The Mandela Effect. A large amount of people sharing a false memory has serious horror potential.

it would be cool to have a horror movie about humans devoloping weird animal behaviors. i dont mean crawling on 4 but moms eating their babies because she had to many like hamstere, fathers changing gender like seahorse. just weird obscure things

Schizophrenia, but the person with the schizophrenia isn't a villain. It's more about the actual experience of having the illness. I would kill for a movie like this but I've never found one that both did a good job AND didn't villainize the mentally ill protagonist.

compassion fatigue. ok hear me out, I used to work at a Necropsy lab, if you don't know what that is just make sure you aren't eating lunch rn when u Google it. we would work with cancer studies alot and the rats would be in ROUGH shape. they were cared for by the in vitro staff, aalaac verified, no worries, but they do sometimes come down to necropsy a lil sickly, covered in masses and buck grease. I never got compassion fatigue, I always took great care in euthanasia and collecting tissues, taking care to cuddle each rat before putting it down. But the concept was terrifying to me, to come in and instead of seeing the cute lil rat faces and being lifted up, a cold empty darkness fills me. the slow and steady decline into objectification of life. with how effortless my scalpel cuts, with how often my vision is flooded by cold blood, overtime you don't become phased by the delicate nature of living tissues. you accidentally stab into your hand and feel nothing. you see a dog get hit by a car and feel NOTHING. You get curious about what the inside of everything looks, corpses are quiet and clean. eventually you may get too curious, and peek inside your loved one, your pet, your neighbor. and feel. NOTHING.

A bit dark but postpartum depression that leads to psychosis. A lot of mothers have hurt their babies because of it, they didn’t get the help they needed since it isn’t really taken seriously

i just want more movies with the main protagonist being deaf. Hush was so scary bc she was deaf. And when we were seeing things from her perspective, we couldn’t hear anything either. It’s terrifying. Not being able to hear your attacker is terrifying
