Corpsey
bandz ahoy
I'm thinking of areas you're drawn to when picking things to read and watch and listen to. But I'd be happy to find out about people's obsessive sexual fetishes or stamp collecting or whatever.
Speaking of which, I'm personally very drawn to reading gruesome books about serial killers and psychopaths. I'm routinely disturbed to the point of sleeplessness by something I've read or seen in connection with this area, which perhaps accounts for my obsession. If it had no emotional effect on me I'd not be drawn back to it, compelled to relive my (minor) trauma. Even so, I have had to have a word with myself to stop seeking out this stuff online, as there's quite a lot of mental images now lodged in my mind that I will never be able to dislodge without dementia kicking in.
It doesn't have to be something like this, though, it can just be something that you're very interested in and have read a lot about... Do what thou wilt.
