Rachmiel asked Kendare Blake:

Does our profound love of morbidity come from fear of death, love of death, or something else entirely?

Kendare Blake Perhaps both. I like to think that it is slightly different for everyone. Some people like to read about insanity just to be sure that they aren't insane, you know? Others read disturbing things to explore how far things can go. What people are capable of. So there are probably many motives for enjoying morbid things.
