Why Are Horror's Constantly Being Remade?

Whenever a remake of a classic horror film such as ‘Carrie’ is announced, people automatically become sceptical and think it’s going to be ‘poor’. Although a lot of people agree that these remakes of such iconic horror’s are completely unnecessary as they will never be able to obtain the classic title that such originals hold,  why then do directors and writers still come together to do these remakes? This is because the majority of the time they want to prove the sceptics wrong and put a more current and fresh spin on these classics to make them more relatable seeing as times have changed and technology has advanced greatly.
