As the Halloween season approaches, many people in the United States look for the perfect horror movie to watch. While choosing a film can be difficult, a new study called the "Science of Scare" project has used data to identify the scariest horror movie ever made.

Researchers conducted a study where they monitored the heart rates of participants while they watched various horror films. The goal was to see which movies caused the most physical reaction. By measuring how much a viewer's heart rate increased, the team was able to rank the films based on their ability to create fear.

According to the final results, the 2012 movie "Sinister" took the top spot. During the study, the film caused the heart rates of the audience members to increase by an average of 34 percent. This made it the most intense experience for the viewers involved in the project.

This study provides a scientific way to measure how horror movies affect our bodies. For those who enjoy a good scare, "Sinister" is now officially recognized as the film most likely to get your heart racing. Whether you are a fan of horror or just looking for a thrill, this data offers a clear recommendation for your next movie night.
