This New 'Psycho Killer Movie' Is So Terrifying It's Causing Real-Life Therapy Bills—And Insurance Won't Pay
If you thought watching a horror movie was just a cheap thrill, think again. The new "psycho killer movie" sweeping theaters is so psychologically intense that therapists are reporting a spike in patients seeking help for anxiety and sleep paralysis after viewing. But here's the kicker: your health insurance might refuse to cover those post-film panic attacks. Mental health experts warn that dropping $18 on a ticket could lead to hundreds in out-of-pocket therapy costs, especially if you have a high-deductible plan. Plus, with ticket prices already up 12% this year, you're gambling your wallet and your sanity. Before you buy a seat, check if your insurer considers "movie-induced trauma" a pre-existing condition.
