Scary films, games, hospitals and what helps, sentence 0

Many fears about death come from things we watch, play or hear rather than from real life: Jack sees a film at his cousin's where a ghost kills people and cannot sleep for days, yet the ghost was made by actors and special effects and cannot hurt anyone.

Who acts: Many fears, we, Jack, ghost, actors · What happens: come, watch, play, hear, see, kill · To what, where: things, real life, film, cousin, people, ghost
