Is it normal to love horror movies but be terrified of them?

I am totally, completely in love with horror movies: every time one comes out in theaters I HAVE to see it, if somebody asks me what movie I want to watch I immediately say a horror movie. You get the idea. However, I get extremely paranoid and scared after watching them. I am also the kind of person that has had somewhat paranormal experiences and definately belives in these sort of things, though some stuff I acknowledge as being incredibly foolish. Even after movies that are barely scary, I get paranoid. I won't even want to go to the bathroom alone after a horror film. Yet I still watch these movies, knowing I will be tramatized afterwards. I can't stop watch these movies though, I love them so much! Is this normal? What can I do to stop it?

    Thrillseeking I guess. Much like when I go on a rollercoaster, even though I'm convinced I'll fall out and die somehow.

    these films absolutely has a bad impact for our mind! you try not watch these films alone or at night. just look it simply don't watch deeply i mean don't go enter of the story.when r u watching these movie say and repeat in your mind it is just a game it isn't true. i am strong it has never effect on me. when it finish try to forget what did u see!! how???? go out side and walk and talk with your people around or reading book.
