Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Motif of harmful sensation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | The motif of harmful sensation involves harm befalling a person directly from the mere fact of their experiencing a sensation that would not normally be harmful; it appears in both traditional and authored stories. |
 | | While this motif is largely imaginary, a real-world parallel is epileptic seizures triggered by strobe lights. |
 | | Belief in the harmful sensation is still developing in urban legends. |
