I know it would be awesome to see them-- but I would rather see them in the daytime-- I AM TERRIFIED OF GHOSTS (well I have never seen one but I know I am afraid to!!)-- so it would make the experience scary rather than enjoyable for me!! I know- I'm weird- you don't have to say it! haha

I know this might sound kind of weird, but playing with my shadow..cuz my aunt used to tell us that if you play with your shadow, it will come out and slap you. I think she was kidding..

That made an impression on me as a child..

I had this reeeeeally creepy doll that I was afraid of. I couldn't just put her in the closet or toy chest because, of course, that would just make her mad, so I had to keep her out in the room.

*The Monkeys from The Wizard of Oz
*My basement
*Spiders
*Mr. Rodgers (don't ask me why...my mom says I used to run screaming from the room whenever he came onto the TV...)

Ghosts. This stemmed from seeing one too many Fox specials. Also, my oldest sister took me on a walk when I was maybe 4,5, and in the old section of the graveyard, a crypt from the 1840's had broken and you could see in. I don't remember seeing a skeleton (I saw a mass of something), but that left a very lasting impression.

An old nanny told me that the devil lives in the closets of young children. Needless to say, she didn't last long at our house. Still, she made a lasting impression. I was always FRIGHTENED at night so I made my dad close my closet door every night before bed. One night, my closet door was left open and I can remember hiding under my covers the whole night, paralyed with fear.

I now know that the nanny was off her rocker but to this day I close my closet door at night. I get a weird feeling when the lights are off and my closet door is still open.

puahaha that is some funny shit.


AHAHAHAHA good lord. that is some more funny shit.

The Wizard of Oz - I saw that movie in a BIG screen theatre and it scared the bejeezus out of me. I still don't like that movie.

bridges-as a child i was scared that any bridge would crumble away as we drove over it and we would plunge into the river to our death

i always thought that i could hear people creeping about outside when i was trying to go to sleep, so my brother and i set "traps" for them. we dug holes under each bedroom window and put pine cones in them then covered the holes with pine straw-they were crunchy and we would be able to hear if someone stepped on them.

i had a "tiny tears"doll, that you could give a bath to and being a negligent 4 year old mother, i left her face down in the undrained bath one night. the next morning when i got up, i found her, and picked her up and i swear that her eyes had rolled back in her head-you could see all these wires in her head. she was so scary looking i shoved her in the cabinet under the sink, afraid that she would seek revenge.

i was also afraid of ventriloquist dummies because as a child i saw an episode of "the twilight zone" where a ventriloquist was performing his act and then went to his room, put the dummy in the suitcase, lay down on the bed and went to sleep and then the dummy climbed out of the suitcase and killed the ventriloquist. i couldn't even walk past them in a store!

i think we all need to go into therapy!

-closed-in spaces (I've always been claustrophobic to some extent)
-the new tornado slide at school (for years but I finally got over it)
-flying with my dad
-storms
-I was terrified of these two paintings that hung outside one of our bathrooms. One was of a boy and the other was of a girl, and I swear they could SEE me.
-getting a haircut -- there are pictures of me standing outside crying because I was so terrified
-putting on turtlenecks (see claustrophobia)
-I was kind of a hypochondriac too. I once thought I would die after some bug bit me.
-getting lost
-OH yes also the Wizard of Oz, mostly because of the witch getting smooshed under the house -- that scared the crap out of me.
-the Mud Monster -- I swear this was a cheesy movie I saw once where there was a mud monster and his hand was chopped off and sat on a stair waiting to grab someone and fling him or her down the rest of the stairs.

I was (am?) a freak!

1. Birds
2. Monkeys

---Oh yeah, so you can probably guess that when I would watch Wizard of Oz I would piss my pants..

Other than those 2 things I was a little badass child, nothing else scared me.

So are you saying that if someone came out with a new movie called "The Lizard of Oz" you wouldn't want to see it? ;)

The dark. :(

Sometimes I would open my eyes and various objects in my room would scare me.

Big dogs. In particular, German Shepards (one killed my kitten), Rottweilers (one bit my mother and injured her really badly - very scary to see as a kid) and Standard Poodles (no idea where that one came from).

Also heights. And I'm still afraid of all of the above.
