Hello Uncle Big Ear!
Last weekend, my classmate took me to play a horrible "script kill". As soon as I saw the cover of the script, my heart began to tremble. Later, when I saw the murder scene arranged by the boss, I was even more terrified! When I walked into the dimly lit narrow room and the door was closed from behind, there was only a wailing sound in my ears. Looking at the blood-red lights in the room, the grinning bat and the images of some demons and monsters hanging on the shed, I was scared to death. Since the game regulations cannot "get out" halfway, I have been struggling to complete the task in a state of fear. This time I played "Script Kill" left a big psychological shadow on me. Until now, when I close my eyes, I can remember the horror scene at that time. I don’t dare to turn off the lights at night. Teacher, do I have any sequelae? But a big man was so scared that he was embarrassed to tell others, and he could only suppress his inner fear. what do I do?

During the play, it can also enhance the interpersonal communication skills of . Therefore, different choices of scripts will lead to different personal experiences.

Your feeling of horror has activated the "repression" mechanism of psychological defense. Is it because of the characters in the plot. Have you ever experienced it in real life? Have you ever seen or heard of such scenes in books, films and TV series since I was a child, which made you recreate the horror scenes in the past and become afraid of these horror images in the "Script Kill"? In fact, many times, we will have a horror mentality because we lack understanding of unknown fields and are not firm enough about ourselves. allows you to bring your feelings into this situation when you experience the horror "script kill" with strong authenticity. You now need to distinguish between reality and plot, extract from the horror scenes, and return to the real real life.
I wonder if you have heard of the story of "Lu Xun's cemetery kicking ghosts"? Once, Lu Xun went home late at night. In order to take a shortcut, when he was passing through a gloomy cemetery, he saw a white shadow rising and falling in the grass in the distance, and slowly "floating" towards him. In that situation, Lu Xun felt a little scared at first, but soon calmed down. Because he had studied medicine, he knew that ghosts did not exist in this world, so he quickly walked up to the white shadow, kicked hard, and found that it was a tomb robber. Lu Xun later laughed and said, "A ghost will become a human if he is kicked." In Lu Xun's perception, "There are only ghosts in the world who are afraid of humans, and no one is afraid of ghosts." This firm belief allowed him to overcome his fear of "ghosts". In this story, if he doesn't go to the scene to explore because of fear, he will probably really leave a shadow of "meeting ghosts" in his heart.
Many times, because of people's fear, they often spread rumors, spreading the horrible image constructed in people's cognition to the level of magic.
In life, we must have a sunny and confident attitude, and only by facing various external pressures and fears can we solve them easily. When facing these terrifying scenes, needs to distinguish the relationship between the script and the actors, and try to find out whether the feelings of the characters in the plot have similar experiences to the feelings we have encountered in real life. You can talk to your psychology teacher about these fears and expose them to the sun; in addition, we can also read more science books and use the power of science to expel inner fears; at the same time, we can also participate in more positive and sunny collective activities with our friends.
In addition, we also need to examine whether there are any things that make you feel anxious recently that have not been resolved. This kind of anxiety may also contain terrifying emotions, which leads to terrifying emotions lingering around you . We might as well solve the things one by one like unloading the burden, or face them in front of them, so that your heart will slowly become relaxed.

Case Reflection
In recent years, immersive entertainment activities such as "escape room" and "script killing" have become entertainment projects pursued by teenagers. Some minors put down their mobile phones and switched from the Internet to the script, exercising their expression skills and teamwork skills. "Script Killing" was originally named "Murder Mystery", which is essentially a role-playing mystery game. During the game, players can play roles in the script, immerse themselves in virtual stories, and solve the puzzles given by the script through logical reasoning, which can play a good role in social interaction and psychological stress relief. However, due to the low entry threshold and lack of supervision, the "script killing" industry has grown wildly, and some scripts may contain bad content such as horror, bloody, violence, thriller, and supernaturalism, causing a series of physical and mental discomfort among teenagers. Merchants should cultivate the correct world, values and outlook on life of minors, and create excellent scripts with healthy and uplifting content, excellent quality, rich variety and diverse forms based on the ability of young people.
