You might want to read my article on the CPwiki forums, What is "creepy" anyway?

I spend a bit of time in that on the nature of fear, and the difference between something that is frightening, and something that is unsettling. I'd actually like to do more studies on those issues at some point, and how many completely different concepts we tend to lump together under the blanket term of "Horror".
