ELI5: Why do most hallucinations instigate fear to the person suffering from it?

For example (sorry if the example is poor, but hopefully someone can get my point): most Schizophrenics see things that look threatening or hear voices that tell them to hurt themselves or just say horrible things that scare them.

Believe it or not it's actually influenced by the culture you are in. The eastern world, Asia, India etc...voices and hallucinations are nice and kind and encouraging for the most part, here in America they are harsh and mean. It's an environmental thing.
