It's well known that in most film and literature, that hero saving the damsel, those scary scenes involving slamming doors have basically become a cliché. Of course, we can also call them tropes; the reason they are is because of how frequently they appear, almost to the point of being chilling.
On the negative side, we call it overused, and on the positive, we call it timeless.
Regardless, we must admit that these plots, which have stood the test of time and still have a place in countless works today, indeed have their unique charm.
The Hero emerges to save the beauty, not only preventing the pretty girl from being mistreated by villains but also highlighting the Hero's charisma.
The haunted house's doors slam shut, not only startling the young girls and women but also scaring the burly men.
Even if the trope is a bit cliché, the fact that these operations can persist to the current situation itself proves the genuine thrill and awe they bring to people.
