Why are we so drawn to supernatural phenomenons?

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.It's the source of all true art and science." Albert Einstein

A beautiful fairytale always has a wicked witch . A haggard old woman with a pointed hat, a black cat and a broomstick.

Folklore carries stories about blood sucking creatures, humans who turn into wolves under full moon, ghosts and spirits hovering in graveyards: etc.

We all familiar with this notion because when we were kids, we were taught these stories. That's how we know that a candy house is not always that delicious. It's trick to lure us in.
Ironically these stories drew a picture of good and evil of the society in a manner children can understand.

Later Hollywood and the modern literature dressed this phenomenons into something else other than good & evil. That is fantasy.
How can we resist it.?  So we started to love it. Yeah both you and me.

Can we use this obsession to boost ourselves? Well may be.
