So, why do the eyes of horror have such a profound impact on audiences? The answer lies in psychology. The eyes are often considered a window to the soul, and when we look into someone's eyes, we subconsciously seek to understand their emotions, intentions, and character. In horror, the eyes are used to subvert these expectations, creating a sense of unease and discomfort.
