What people have you seen make dumb decisions in horror movies/shows?
I'll start with a classic. "Let's split up." Even though there's a monster/killer out there.

I'm entering a creepy-looking empty house I should totally call out "Hello? Is anyone there?"
Not calling the cops. Or even better getting it the car and leaving.
Woah, scary noise. I should approach it.
There's a scary person in a mask and a huge weapon casually walking behind me, I should totally forget how to run and keep tripping over my feet
Live in a world of zombies. Better not put on or make any body armour.
Hear a creepy noise and instead of running the fuck away, I stay until I see a silhouette in the dark two meters away from me, ready to attack.
Avoid buying creepy-looking dolls
Prometheus School of Running Away From Things.
Also "Guys, don't go over there or you will die. Random bitch: Hey guys you know what we should do? We should go over there."
Went into a room with the only exit is the door they ran into
In "The Bishop of Battle", a short from the 1983 horror anthology Nightmares, the protagonist inexplicably leaves behind the only weapon that is effective against the monsters attacking him. He gets "killed" by the titular Bishop within the next two minutes.
I see my neighbor's St. Bernard growling, foaming at the mouth, and covered in blood. I should TOTALLY try to pet him. (I know that was only in one specific movie, but still, PRETTY FUCKIN' STUPID!!!)
Running into a corn field when there is clearly a car or a tool shed they can get into to defend themselves.
Sticking your arms into an obvious trap instead of finding a way to get the key or whatever you need.
Also, not getting the fuck out of dodge as soon as shit starts seeming spooky.
Oh, I remember, in Sadako vs Kayako, despite their plan working and two cursed ghosts fighting eachother, the leads, rather than running away, they just stand and scream

I remember in Scary Movie, Black News or whatever is like "This just in, White folks be dead, we getting the fuck out of here!" Like, I'm sorry, if there's a demon, murderer, or the like on the loose, I'm gonna either bunker down somewhere safe, or better yet, GTFO
It doesn't just apply to Horror movies.
Some people in Among Us do the same thing.
