thoughts that really freaked me out when i was little: quick sand: there was at least one episode of every cartoon i watched where someone was getting stuck, and swallowed, in quick sand. ... it still gives me the shivers to think about it. how the hell do you get out!! no matter what they did, they kept dropping deeper and deeper into the stuff. help was always too far away -- or worse, getting pulled in with you! for whole days on end, i was afraid of sand boxes and/or beaches, for fear of spontaneous-quicksand-conversion. hey, you never know! acid rain: lets see. i knew what rain was -- thats the stuff that falls everywhere, and gets everything wet. i knew what acid was (again, from cartoons) -- thats the stuff that eats through everything, and melts or burns whatever it touches. and acid rain?? oh my god!! thats some scary mutant rain, that burns through everything!! it falls from the sky, so there's no way to hide from it, as it covers everything. plus, even if im inside, it'll eat through the roof of my house, burn thru the top level, and eventually reach and attack me. how the hell can you escape it??!?! solar eclipse: i learned in school: "you shouldnt look at a solar eclipse, because it will hurt your eyes." ... ok... easy enough. dont look... dont look... dont look... ow... oh man... i looked!! nooo!!! im going to go blind!!! i remember running in my house one day, during just such an event. the whole way, i was staring at my feet, tripping over stuff. but, it didnt matter -- i had to protect my eyes!

Eternity: As a child I was always taught that, when Christians die, they go to heaven to live with Jesus forever (a belief to which I still adhere). However, a young child trying to wrap his mind around a concept as infinite as "eternity" is not a pretty sight. I would often find my childlike finite mind wandering into the world of the infinite and it would always bring me to tears. The concept is still dumbfounding to me, but I've learned to live with and accept the mystery.

Vampires: I was really young and there used to be this cover over the light fixture in my old bedroom that would catch the lights from outside just right...and it would look like a pair of glowing red yes. Vampire eyes. I'd lay there on my back, with the covers/sheets (even in summer) pulled up to my nose...in fear that it would come down and bite me. Only a little kid can forget something like that as soon as they woke up the next morning and then freak out all over again when going to bed the next night. [ 03-07-2002: Message edited by: Bianca ]

Lion-o, from Thundercats He stared at me every night. If I was facing the left, he'd stare at me from the right. If I turned to the right, he'd run to the left and stare at me from there. I hated him. Tape worms "If you eat too many sugar a worm will grow inside your stomach and eat everything you swallow!"
Gulp! Laser Pointers I got pointed in the eye with on of those things once. "AAAAAAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" Killer Clowns from Outer Space Clows didn't scare. Killer Clowns from Outer Space, on the other hand... Transformers I didn't like riding in cars, because I was afraid they'd transform into robots... WITH ME IN THEM! I was responsible for my brother's fear for closets, when I told him about a dream I had about some aliens coming out of the one in my room... He has to sleep with his closet's door closed to this day.

Monsters in the closet/dark: Have you ever scared yourself silly, lying in bed, thinking about someone being in your closet, waiting for you go to sleep? The more you focus on the closet itself, the worse it gets.
The more you strain your ears to the quiet, the worse it gets. Fffffreaky! Um... Anyone read Stephen King's "Jessie's Game"? I think is the title....it's a crossover with "Dolores Claiborne"...anyways - um... Basically, Jessie and her bf/husband/whatever go to a cabin for a holiday and she ends up getting handcuffed to a heavy wooden bed, and dude literally dies on her. So she goes thru a few days without food and water waiting on someone to show, all during - her mind is racing and reacting. So she starts to hallucinate and one night, she wakes up and sees a dark figure in the corner, smiling, the moon or some shit refecting off his teeth. She sits and stares at him for an hour, he never makes a motion, so she passes it off as her mind...guess what! When she's finally free and home she finds out there's an escaped convict/loony tune/psycho/running around in those woods. Creeeeepy!!
I suggest it for good nightmares.

Again another realy old thread. But ah well. I'm bored so here goes. Aliens:
I use to watch these creepy shows about UFO's and aliens. It use to scared the heck out of me. That I would get nightmares. But every (whatever day it was that it came on) I would watch it again. Go figure. The unknown:
Every once and awile I'd start thinking of crazy wierd crap that would aventually scare me into nightmares and such. Specaily when it was late and I was lying in bed and your mind wonders. You'd be lying there and be staring at the wall/ceiling/whatever and your eyes would play tricks on you. Scary. <shudders> But then I'm just like your being silly and that was that. Hmm not to much scares me at this point in my life any more. I've become pretty much cloned or numbed to things. Somethings like the unexplained gosty stuff startels me but doseint scare me. When my parents fight that scares me. But thats it.

Yeah. That scared the shit out of me as well. In general, the whole death/ afterlife gave me many incidences of the wiggins. In fact, in 8th grade, I obsessed about it so much, I actually gave myself a psychosomatic case of strep throat.

Hrm.............this is tough.
Big, giant crawly spiders: First nightmare I can recall as a kid, I was stuck in this spider web, with this huge, fangy spider coming after me. Yeah...I can kill them now and not get freaked out if they arent poisonous or whatever but the thought still creepy.
Fear: Gosh from second grade, I remember I freaked out so much about not meeting a school deadline/not doing the right hwk/I would litteraly have a panic attack (which I hid pretty well): my hands would start shaking/trembling, my heart would race/sweat would break out on my forehead. Darn....it was bad. It's not like that anymore!
Leaving a Legacy: From the earliest age I can remember, I always worried that I would do something and royaly screw up my life and the lives around me. Marry the wrong guy, have the wrong job, do stupid stuff growing up and forever scar the children I will have, etc. Pretty deep thoughts I know.....but the thought still scares me. Everything I do will impact someone else, so if I choose the wrong path/what I want instead of what God wants, who's to say it wont rip up another person's life?
Getting left by my parents: Yup....everytime we went to the mall or a big store, especially, I would always freak out at the possibility of losing sight of my parents and being stuck there for hours. Stupid I know but hey...it freaked the crap outta me!

Holy shit, ME TOO! That's exactly what I was talking about in another thread! Eternity scared the crap out me, even if it was in heaven or paradise. I'm glad to see someone else has simliar fears...

Man, I did that too. I always thought I was the only child who was actually bothered by the thought of eternity. Especially with Christian children who equate eternity with Jesus.

I used to be afraid of the toilet. Totally didn't help that my mother told me there was this monster that lived in the toilet and if you sat on it for too long he'd pull you in and eat you. She even named him "Mr. Tidy-bowl Man". Totally traumatized me.
I was also afraid of tapeworms. Thought for a really long time that I had one.
And clowns. The movie "IT" totally didn't help.

you should post a pic of yourself crapping on the toilet to emphasize the fact that the toilet scares the shit out of you.

Whoa! What kind of toilet-training scare tactic was that? "Yes sweet, sweet Marlene...if you sit on the toilet for too long, a creature will devour your vagina. Now, go piss in the corner of the room with the rest of your young brethren..." ?  ?

No...that's okay. I'd rather not. Besides, I'd never be able to hold a camera steady and do that.
