I can understand that. Part of why I never found drugs attractive - no thanks, I LIKE knowing what I'm doing.
The problem is that when people react like that they don't KNOW why they are doing it. They just think it's cool, or want to impress their frieneds. It's not like they say "Hey, today I think I'll go looking for a short woman to be scared by in front of my girlfriend so I can act out my insecurities about my manhood by punching the 5'2" zombie-girl."
You learn a LOT about human nature by working haunts.
On the other hand, I can't be scared by a haunted house any more because I know too much about them. I can tell where they want me to look so I reflexively look the other way and always see what's coming. I'm no fun.
