Yes. Stories of vampires, werewolves and zombies can be dismissed as nonsense, but true histories describing just how vilely we humans have acted are deeply distressing. Worst of all is knowing that virtually any one of us can be lead into the same actions. Still, I think it is better to be distressed and wary rather than ignorant and ready to repeat those old atrocities.
