I think “Morbid Curiosity” is the most common phrase. Ambivalent may be more correct, but if you are planning to use it in a speech or report, I’d go with the former, for ease of communication.

Ambivalent is a good one. Or you could describe that perticular person/thing as being ‘bittersweet’.

A colloquial way of expressing that is a “Love-Hate” reaction.

I’d call that . . . bizarre! Depends on what you talking about. . . a person?
