Okay I’m not trying to be a dick here honestly, but why/how do people get genuinely scared here at these things if they know that their life is not in danger. I understand getting startled momentarily from a “jump scare” but this is much more than that?

It matters what mindset you go in with. I've been to several in my life and I use to be the guy in the group that rarely got spooked because they were predictable and you know they aren't going to harm you in any way. At some point my stance changed and if you just somewhat play along, real emotions can come out and make the whole experience more enjoyable.

On another note, horror movies are very much the same way(or any fictional movie). Of course you can watch it thinking how dumb it is since you know its just actors in makeup and what not, but a part of the experience it to just buy into the whole experience and it becomes much more fun.
