Nowadays, the supernatural has become acceptable and desirable. All forms of entertainment is base on the mysterious supernatural. A lot of time our fascination for the unknown is driven by the motive to escape our man made scientifically explained home to a place where your not in control. For instance, getting lost in a the television series Supernatural will do that for you. The series provides an opportunity for the viewers to be exposed to the best and worst of both worlds.
One of the reason for this continuous growth of America's obsession with the occult is tied in with our want of a happy ending. Hollywood showed us through movies, like "World War Z" and "Warm Bodies", that even through all the struggles, there will always be a happy ending. We use these movies as an escape from our real lives and hope that we are able to live the lives of those people on the big screen where everything always ends up the way they wanted to.
We probably would never be able to see vampires or zombies in real life, but it never hurts to hope for it to happen, right? For all we know, the supernatural is probably way more real than the world we are living in now. There could have been a vampire in your science class all along and you most likely would not have known about him.
