The leading expert on the science behind morbid curiosity explains our spooky, gory, and macabre fascinations
What makes us peek at a car wreck or binge-watch true crime shows late into the night? Why are some of us drawn to horror movies while others shudder at the thought? In Morbidly Curious, scientist Coltan Scrivner takes readers on a thrilling journey into the psychology of morbid curiosity, uncovering why we can’t resist the macabre. From grisly serial killers to spine-chilling paranormal stories, Scrivner reveals the psychological forces that compel us to explore our darkest fears—and explains how this proclivity is more than just a quirk. It’s a powerful survival instinct, helping us mentally prepare for real-world threats, all from the safety of our imaginations.
Blending fascinating insights and cutting-edge research at haunted houses across the world, Scrivner makes a powerful argument for the value of playing with fear and embracing the gruesome. Whether you're a horror fan yourself or just want to better understand the true crime craze, Morbidly Curious will open your eyes to the hidden benefits of exploring the dark side of human nature.

Best budget dupe by far
Color: Gold, Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love, love, love it. Love the price, love the feel, love the smell. It absorbs fully not greasy at all and leaves just a hint of glow on your skin.

Actual glitter instead of highlighter
Color: Gold, Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was looking for a glow body oil that had actual pieces of glitter in it, instead of just a body highlighter (like many of the other market glow oils) and this is exactly what I was looking for. It smells delicious and is very moisturizing. It does feel like an oil, but it is lightweight. I have the sol de janiero glow oil and the main differences are the pieces of glitter vs the highlighting effect. Its not an over powering amount of glitter but just enough that if the light hits you, you can tell there is a shine

Glass bottle
Color: Gold, Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells nice, not the shimmer I was looking for. It wasn’t super glittery like another brand I had. Also it’s in a glass bottle. So I didn’t feel comfortable packing it on my trip.
