Watching a Horror Movie Burns the Same Amount of Calories as Contained in a Chocolate Bar

A study conducted by the University of Westminster shows how you burn calories while watching horror movies. It is interesting that you burn more calories if the movie is scarier. Your metabolism is stimulated by the rush of adrenaline, caused by the increased pulse rate. The study claims that the amount of calories contained in a small chocolate can be burned by 30 minute walk or by watching a 90-minute horror film.

There is also a list of top 10 calorie burning horror movies. First is The Shining – with watching it you could burn 184 calories. Second is Jaws (Steven Spielberg’s) with 161 calories. Third place is for The Exorcist with 158 calories.

Now losing weight could be really fun – enjoy a horror movie while burn calories at the same time!
