Psychology

"Psychology-that was one thing I knew. You don't try to scare people in broad daylight. You wait. Because the darkness squeezes you inside yourself, you get cut off from the outside world, the imagination take over. That's basic psychology." pg. 195

That's horrible. I would hate to be cut from the world and then be left up to my imagination. Imagination is a scary thing. Sometimes you start to think your imagination is reality. Thats when things can go really wrong. The soldiers must have had a lot of strength and will power. Some did give into their imagination like Rat.
