An affinity for something or someone inherently harm- ful. This twentieth-century term appears in such locutions as, “Even after the deaths of hundreds of climbers, Mt. Everest continues to exert a fatal attrac- tion for many mountaineers.” It was used as the title of a 1987 motion pic- ture about a happily married man who has a weekend affair with a beautiful woman; she turns out to be psychotic and tries to destroy his and his family’s life.
