Are horror movies bad for the heart/mental health?

This seems very silly but, if you experience lots of fright, anxiety, mental health problems and heart problems, can watching a horror movie at a theater, or at home , cause your problems to get worse or possibly lead you into an anxiety/panic attack and even heart attack?

Can a horror movie be a source of stress?

It’s not like our bodies can tell real danger from fake danger, the same hormones I’m sure get released.
