That stuff is only scary to a very specific group of Christians.

Man I'm an asshole. But still, I feel the trope is played out in horror.

I just don't get it. How is a pentagram scary?

    I mean it is scary when they're physically manifesting and killing people or turning into physical projections of their sins or something, and the aesthetic sets a certain mood

    Like I heard the new Hellraiser sucks ass but I have seen clips of the fucked up guy with the glasses auditing people's sins on a weird typewriter machine and it's kinda cool

      thats one of the older hellraisers, one of the cheaply made ones. but that character was cool.

      the new Hellraiser is legit good. it has some flaws but really leans into the Clive Barkerness
