Title: Things that scare you, or used to.
Post by: superstarMASIAH on July 01, 2005, 06:36:10 PM
Yeah, I've been thinking alot lately(not always a good thing) but I have been wondering this one question.  What scares you the most?

Heres my list, most of it was crap I thgought of when I was little.  Most of the stuff I'm over with

Used to be scared of
-E.T.(Bad dreams)
-That stupid chucky doll(I saw the movie when I was a little too young)
-I used to think people lived undernieth the shower, thats why I never put my feet on the drain, because I thought if I did, the people would grab my feet.
-I used to read u.f.o books in school, then when I whent to sleep I would think of the crazy stories in them.
-I used to be afraid of going downstairs, and if I had to, I would run up the stairs as fast as I could when I was done.
--------------------------------------------
These are the things I'm still kind of afraid of

-I still leave my bedroom door open at night, in fear of being asassinated(spelling?)
-a little afraid of the dark
-abduction (normal, or paranormal)

Al Pacino came out of the theater...  Bruce Willis came out of the T.V...  But Mel Gibson, came out of nowhere.

Used to be scared of:

-The basement.  I would run back up as fast as possible, and my footsteps would sound like a giant monster chasing me!  OH NO!
-Lord Voldemort.  That creepy evil guy from Harry Potter.  I used to leave my door open and always thought I would see him standing at the doorway, or at the foot of my bead, staring at me.
-It.  That really creepy clown guy.  He was the worst.  I'm still creeped out about him, actually.
-Aliens.  Are they really out there?  To this day, I'm still not sure.  Maybe...
-Okay, I'm gonna say it...I used to have this board game, where you played an ant, and the ant was on an ant-eaters tounge.  You would have to try to get off the tounge as the game continued on, but I was so scared of the ant-eater, I would grab the ants while my family was playing it and run away.
-E.T. (yes, me as well.  that thing was just so creepy!)
-Evil robots that have come to kill me!
-The Dark

What I am afraid of:

-Serial killers and murderers.  You know.  That old chestnut.
-Spiders.  I swear I have aractnaphobia (however you spell it) which is the fear of spiders, obviously.
-Being the last person on Earth (and hear a knock at my door).

What I was afriad of:

Grey Aliens (the ones with large heads, big black eyes, and small bodies): I first saw one when I saw the cover of the book Communionat the age of four. I didn't scream or anything, but for a few weeks I  crawled into my parents' bed instead of sleep alone. Later when I was eight or so, I saw the movie Communion, and scream when I saw the alien. I was deathly afriad of it for a year or so until I got over it.

ET-How can people say he was cute? He's creepy!

Vacuum cleaners--I have a scary dream where I got sucked into one. I was about four then.

What I'm still afriad of:
Being abducted my aliens. Of course I read up, and still read about "true" UFO stories and UFO abductions. Alot of evidence says it's unlikely we're being abducted, but if I'm up late at night, I still feel afraid to fall aseelp, or else get abducted and have breedign experiments done on me!

Roller Coaster--I can't stand them @_@!

Used to be scared of:

-Spiders.  I'd imagine them under my bed sheets at night and I'd sleep on the couch for like a week if I saw one on the wall.  Now they're no problem, but turantulas are still kinda creepy.
-Skeletons.  They were so... skeletal.  Then one day I just didn't fear them.  No idea how or why.
-Those stupid games my mind comes up with.  Like, there was this one where I imagine a shark tearing through the floorboards really fast, and you have to jump onto a peice of furniture before it touches you, or you die.  Or the really freaky one where the Brain-Andross from StarFox64 comes up the stairs really fast, and I had to run up and get into my room before I imagined it would catch/kill me.  And then that strange one where when I'm in a car on the highway and trees are casting shadows on different parts, and I had to hold my breath while the car drove through the sunlight, and I could only take breaths when I'm in a quick shadow.  None of these games mattered, I just did them like routines.  Then I found out I had bipolar--just kidding.
-Myself.  Hey, it was the beginning of adolescence.  I'm over it for now, it's an on/off thing.

Now afraid of:

-Turantulas, KIND of.  At least I feel more tranquil after seeing one recently at a pet shop.  It was kinda cute, in a "big hairy spider" kinda way.
-Addiction.  It's an ugly thing.
-Roller coasters.  I'll ride one of those smaller ones without loopedy-loops, but I just don't feel like getting on those big loopy twirly ones.

I better cut you off here, taking an overdose of Markio can be dangerous.

Used to be scared of:

A show called Dark Shadows. (not scared of it anymore.)

Looooong hallways in the DARK. o_o

Currently scared of:

The dark (sometimes) -_-

This is gonna sound weird......TV static. Makes me think of The Ring. Or if I walk into a room and imediately see the TV screen and the reflection of me and the rest of the room. (I'm afraid I'm gonna see something behind me move! O_O Like in The Ring.) But I still LOVE that movie.

EDIT: *sigh* AND I guess Im afraid of walking into a dark room, turning on the light and seeing Samara. (Or seeing her behind me in the reflection of a mirror)

I'm pathetic. -_- :P

The citizens of Gotham city are definantly on something. o_O

The wicked witch of the west (from the Wizard of Oz) She's creeped me out ever since I saw a wax statue of her in a wax museum when I was little.
Teletubbies. Bad dream.
Furby. It kept talking to me.
Horror movies in general (with the exception of zombie movies)
I'm claustrophobic.

I used to be scared of:
dark
ugly people
monsters
teachers
spiders

I guess I'm pretty much afraid of everything I feard as a child, except for monsters, teachers, and mabey ugly people. I don't fear UFO, aliens, ghosts, or any of that stuff, cause I'm pretty sure they're not real. As for life after death, it's simply a matter of belief. The truth is out there.

Things I used to be scared of:

-Mewtwo
-Taily-po (our school librarian told a good ghost story!)
-The dark (I swear, I've had that night-light workin' since this January!)
-Spiders... of all kinds.
-I shared my mom's fear for all snakes... 'xept for rubber ones.

Things I'm scared of now:

-People in Peru (they eat guinea pigs!!!)
-Big spiders (teensy ones and grandaddy spiders are nice, they don't bite)
-My dad dancing
-Eggman dancing ("What kinda dance is that?" "I think it is called The Jerk.")
-That's it.

     I'm terrified of spiders.
     I'm not scared of dying. The only people who should be are people who think they're going to... the other place...
     But I am afraid that if there is no heaven or... the other place... what will happen?
     I'm scared that I might possibly see the day when there is no more room in the ground for corpses to be buried in. I personally want to be cremated, not worm food.
     I don't like the thought of living forever. Eventually, the world will end and then what? You're floating in space, no Mario games, possibly no aliens, you'll starve to death but not die, you'd choke without air and not die, etc. I'd like to die someday, please.
     I used to be afraid of the vacuum (Because of the Brave Little Toaster movie).
     I was scared of roller coasters until recently, when  I flew off a sea doo with my cousin at Lake Kaweah, CA, and that fear was no more!

When I was a kid, I was really freaked out by this old Santa statue we kept in our garage. You see, it was, for some reason, tall and lanky instead of short and fat, and it held a long candle. The face always creeped me out even in the light, but in the dark it looked like a gruesome, tall monster with bloodshot eyes, a drooling mouth, and a giant knife in its hand. The shadows it cast were enough to make me never go into the garage until my parents got rid of it. I was also scared of looking out a window at night, for I thought a scary head would pop and say something.

Things don't scare me as much as they just freak me out. Thinks like old food in the fridge, or the Shadow Temple and the Bottom of the Well in OoT. Those things alway freaked me out quite a bit.

Unfortunately, the one thing that always has scared me to death is the loss of a fmily member, since I have never had that experience in my life. I don't know what it will be like, and I don't wish to loose those that are close to me.

When I was younger I was afraid of the Re-Dead so much, that I didn't play the adult part of OoT for a year. Also, the Siberian Special forces in Goldeneye scared me a lot.

I was never actually scared of videogames as a kid. In fact, I've now built up an immunity thanks to years of watching "The Evil Dead" and playing Silent Hill and Fatal Frame, and am not scared nearly as much by games and movies. But "Saw" really creeped me out. It sucked, but it was scary.

Playing against computer players in Mortal Combat used to scare me. After playing Super Smash Bros I am no longer afraid.
