Enderman. A skinny, tall and loudly screaming thing you can't really see in the dark... except for eyes of course

And FNAF was kinda scary as I can remember


yeah I was a pussy when I was like 6 or 7

I used to be afraid of the dark. Like wtf is hiding in there?! Then I realized there was nothing to fear, I am what lurks beneath the shadows. Now I just have thalassophobia. Last time I went swimming was in a quarry that got flooded when machinery struck a water reservoir. It was 300 feet deep and crystal clear but the depths were pitch black. Idk why I jumped off a 30 foot cliff into that shit. I felt instant regret, I had forgotten how to swim and I had jeans on lol. Jackknifed so deep into the water I thought I would never reach the top. To get out I had to climb these massive and slimy stone blocks, felt like I was in the water temple from oot. Afterwards, I jumped in again! But yeah I fear being in open water, unsure of what's beneath.

This is going to sound so stupid, but when I was little (around 5-6), I used to be afraid of the Xbox startup.


My mom would turn it on and I'd try to hide from the scary sounds on the TV lol. (Either behind a couch or curtain, or even just running out of the room in general). I used to have noise sensitivity issues when I was younger, so maybe that caused it.

The music, the gnarled noises he makes, and the fact that all you can do is RUN made this one of the most horrifying experiences I've ever had as a kid.


It doesn't scare me as much anymore, but I still tense up like hell whenever I replay it.

This ventriloquist's dummy that was at my grandparents house, sitting in a rocking chair.

The moonlight would shine on his face, and would creep the living fuck out of me while I was trying to go to sleep.

When I was the young jackass I was, I thought that white people were monsters from a flashbang. So I would be like, "Mommy why are those flashbang peeps doing here?"

There was a meme I had of spongbob sleeping and it was something about german kids hearing the most horrific shit in their lives and immediately zonking out. Can't find it anywhere on my computer.

I relate to this answer. Spiderman was like Resident Evil before Resident Evil.


I'm just one of those people still on the path of getting themselves out there in the world. If you're confused by my mug below you haven't read my profile. I point you to it.

Goosebumps covers used to freak me out more than the actual stuff in the books at times. also im pretty sure the illustrations in scary stories to tell in the dark left scars that lasted up til like, my late teens lmao

Fucking Holiday Nutcrackers. I swear those weird straight teeth and the fact you can make the jaw moves really scared me when I was young. I also got scared that time when my buddy told me that you can crack your balls with it. But when I got older I stopped being scared with those things, I don't know man. However, if you guys don't know what I am talking about here ya go. iu_897875_908309.png


This is an example of what I meant. They come in many different shapes and styles. Kind of like the Bobble head or the equivalent of a Funko Pop! Figure. But still, I wasn't that much of a scaredy cat when I was young!

These two specific textures in DOOM II when I first saw my brother play it. The intermission screen, but especially the wall with scrolling fused faces of map 30, that second image burnt into my psyche and never forgotten 20+ years later.

sharks, but i was just as interested in them as i was scared of them because of deep blue sea, 2 headed shark attack and bait. but i was interested in the types of sharks too like the thresher shark, mako and cookie cutter. great whites and bull are overrated
