Birds are crazy in chicago too, they'll fly right into you if you're walking by the lake.

Same here. I'm always scared that someone will push me onto the tracks, and that's not just in NYC, but any city with a subway system.

I'm scared of ET. Yeah, like the movie alien. I hate his glowy fingers so much that I couldn't sleep with a nightlight when I was little, because it looked like them. I have a big theory about why ET is scary, not harmless like everyone thought (it was a trick, man!), but everyone just laughs at me.

I also really hate birds, and get scared when they are all around me. Ick.

One word: NEEDLES.

Mushrooms.

A lot of people always make fun of me for it, but it's honestly like my biggest fear. I can't look at them, touch them, taste them, smell them, etc.

Bats.

I'm also scared of being on a hill in a car, having it conk out and go backwards down the hill. This was a nightmare I had constantly when I was younger.

I'm not afraid of mushrooms, but I find them absolutely disgusting. I will sit there for hours just picking mushrooms out of food. If I see one in a meal I freak out.

I'm terrified of heights. Especially bridges over water.

Chucky, Big Rollercoasters, and Very Deep Water.

Oh, and I wanted to add that Sponge Bob Square Pants freaks me out.

parking garages always freak me out at night...

Scared of heights
scared of snakes

I can not watch scary movies by myself and at night, it's over for me, I won't be able to sleep. I have to watch those movies during the day, so that I can do something else to not think about the movie

#1---> SNAKES... I don't like 'em, in any form or fashion. BLAH!

#2---> going down ladders. I'm not scared of heights, and going up ladders doesn't bother me a bit... but I HATE going down ladders!

I'm not "afraid" of a lot of things, but a LOT of things gross me out to the nth degree. At the top of that list is monkeys - blech.

Cockroaches and wasps

Things under water - suken ships, large logs, etc. I was able to go snorkeling in Hawaii and it was pretty cool. But then this school of fish decided I was their leader and started following me and I freaked.

The dark - still sleep with a light on when I'm by myself
