Horror Archetype Quiz

Pick something to do on your ideal autumn day.

What kind of Halloween costumes do you usually wear?

And what might be your downfall in a horror movie?

You’re one to keep people on the edge of their seats, always anticipating your next move. Your irresistible thrill-of-the-chase vibe matches the slasher film. Classic and sexy, you revel in your youthfulness and aren’t afraid to get up to a little debauchery now and then. I worry for anybody who crosses you, because you know vengeance like no one else.

Slasher!

You find beauty in the natural elements of autumn: the changing leaves, the cool crisp breezes. A lil’ and cottagecore, you tend toward quaint, rural locations, pastoral imagery, and have a reverence for nature. Your power is quiet and understated, but don’t let that fool anyone – sometimes the scariest things are lurking in the peaceful silence. Hopefully my car doesn't break down near your corn field anytime soon...

Folk Horror!

You’re nostalgic, intuitive, and deeply in touch with the forces around you. Like paranormal horror, you find depth – and terror – where others can’t. Maybe you’re an old soul, or maybe you just love antiques. Either way, you value staying close to your loved ones and enjoy reminiscing on happy memories. Want to go look through a trunk of old photographs in the attic?

Haunted Houses!

You’re not afraid to stand your ground; nor are you afraid of the unknown. Bold and brave, you’re like the creature feature horror, where characters encounter a – shocking animal? Cryptid? Giant alien? Who knows! What I can say for sure is, you’re one of a kind. You march to the beat of your own drum and don’t care who knows it.

Creature Feature!

You’re a deep thinker. Thoughtful and ponderous, you don’t shy away from cerebral content. You’re also chill with open endings. For you, the world isn’t black and white but rather a big gray area. While you can be a bit guarded and harder to get to know, your closest friends can’t get enough of you.

Psychological!

You’re loud, proud, and not afraid of shock value. You put all your cards on the table and don’t care who they offend. While your penchant for dramatics tends to get you in trouble, it’s also earned you loyal fans. Secretly, everyone can’t wait to see what you do next.
