You can burn as many calories watching your favorite horror movie as you would if you took a 30-minute walk? ER physician Dr. Travis Stork explains that being frightened causes a burst of adrenaline, which causes your heart rate to increase, your blood pressure to rise and your metabolism to rev up.

So next time it's too cold to take your evening walk, pop in your favourite scary DVD instead!
