Human creature has been afraid of lot of things for years. We should question why we are afraid of them. They are actually harmless fears. There are many researches on people who have psychological fears... Let me show some example...
Cemetery
Generally people are afraid of cemeteries. Even people don't believe in ghosts, they feel bad in a cemetery, especially at night. This fear comes from society and past. Cemeteries are known as bad places because of films and series. Actually, there are no zombies and ghosts in a cemetery. In addition, tombstones don't fly around.

Actually, even we don't see anything in the dark, eveything is same. So, there is no danger!
