I was afriad of clowns and "Thriller".
I was afraid to get in the shower when my parents weren't home bc I was afraid if someone broke into the house I'd be trapped (still have that fear, just deal with it better)
and I was afraid of car lights when they came through my bedroom window at night and made weird shapes on the walls

E.T. and Gremlins. But only the gremlins EPs that came in the Hardee's kids meals.

As a child I was scared to ride in a car on a bridge over a body of water. I was always afraid we would get to the top and the bridge would collapse.

^^^omf, that is the #1 shit i remember being scared of.

8/7/2008 8:53:35 PM

oh i was afraid of bridges also. since we lived on the coast of florida we were driving on bridges daily to get around & i would always have nightmares about the 520 bridge from cocoa to merritt island where half the bridge would be out and we'd have to try and make it to the other side without crashing into the water
some of the on/off ramps of 540 even creep me out now
i shiver at the thought

I don't know when or why it started, but I used to have this fear that Freddy Krueger would jump out and get me whenever I flushed the toilet. So whenever I pushed the lever, I'd run like a Kenyan.

8/7/2008 9:41:53 PM

the brahma bull in the window at night glowing red eyes. FUCK.

Our neighbors lived down a hill from us out in the country. I was in the yard playing one day and my mom was hanging up laundry or something and Tommy, the neighbor called and told us to run inside, there was a big ass brahma bull tromping through his backyard and was moving towards the hill. My mom grabbed me and ran inside. So my dad comes home and tells me the bull was gonna come up to my window next to my bed at night and his eyes would be glowing red.

I still occasionally imagine red eyes (of anything, not just the bull) in the window when it's dark

Oh and "big yellow diggers" at construction sites. I saw a cartoon where one had these angry eyes and teeth and was eating stuff and dancing and talking all mean. I would hide when we drove by.

Dark, X-Files, America's Most Wanted

8/7/2008 11:38:51 PM

i was totally obsessed with unsolved mysteries as a kid, and even though i loved the alien stories, i would totally get creeped out sometimes and feel like someone was watching me.

i am so fucking bitter that it only plays on lifetime anymore, and they pretty much only play the episodes that are girly emotional family lost loved ones stories.

8/7/2008 11:53:29 PM

Evil fat bitch. Those little brown things she turned people into were even worse.

Also:

hand blow dryers
the dark
cranky fat women
any cartoon where a character's voice would sound demonic as the morphed into a huge creature
oh yeah the unsolved mysteries theme music

Oh yeah, I was scared for my life at the thought of Freddy.

8/8/2008 12:01:16 AM

When I had migraines I'd sleep a lot between seizures, and after recovery my sleeping schedule was thrown off, so I'd stay up at night with my dad watching movies. One time Freddy was on and I was still a little queazy... definately did not help my situation.
