Have you ever developed a PTSD only by watching a piece of fiction ?

Have you ever developed a PTSD not because you lived something traumatizing but because of a piece of fiction (movie, serie, book, etc...) ?
For me, it's the saga Final Destination, the first horrific saga i've ever watched, and will likely be the last.

The closest to it was watching Dahmer and getting to the part about the teenage boy because it was a fictionalized depiction of a real event. Despite knowing about what happened for years, there's something different about seeing it depicted on screen. It wrecked me for a while afterwards, and I stopped watching the show because how much it bothered me. It would have still bothered me if it was fiction, but probably not anywhere to the same level.
