    		 One thing that used to wake me up in the middle of the night was my cousin's snoring. He snores so loud and I usually think of snakes and monsters. (scary thought)

        		 When I was a kid, I was afraid of fireworks, but the whistling effect scared the heck out of me. I was afraid of loud noises for years when out of the streets where someone was setting off illegal fireworks in the middle of the street. That gave me the creeps. The one thing after a firework explode it came down and it doesn't fade away. That scared me to death.

        The one thing that I scared as a kid was the closing logos like MGM used at the end of "CHiP's", "Fame", the Tom & Jerry cartoons, the HB Swirling Star and Box HB logos from "The Flintstones Comedy Show" when it was usually on the "USA Cartoon Express", the Columbia Sunburst at the end of "Barney Miller" after the Four "D" logo, the "Starry Night" logo at the end of "Night Court" with the laugh, the 20th Century-Fox TV logo at the end of "M*A*S*H", "Small Wonder" after a guy falling down, "Batman" and others and The "V" of Doom at the end of "All In the Family", "The Alvin Show", "I Love Lucy", "Perry Mason", "Hawaii Five-0", "Paradise Hawaiian Style" which was an Elvis Presley movie where the Paramount logo was cut off when it was replaced by the "V" of Doom. It was from the old Magnetic Video release. The Magnetic Video logo at the beginning scared me to death with cheesy elevator music and that phantom voiceover saying "By special arrangement with Viacom International" and the words "Magnetic Video Corporation" repeated over and over and over again as it scrolls.

        Those are my painful memories watching logos on TV.

          		 The first glimpse of the abominable snow monster in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Him, and the bats in the back yard at dusk when we were on top of our swing set when they swooped down at us.

          ....oh and Tweety Monster :lol:

            I grew up on a farm in Iowa. One time when I was 15 I was home alone in our old farmhouse and I watched The Exorcist by myself for the first time.

                		 When I was a kid my grandma gave me these little books of the Wizard of Oz and Black Beauty. I was reading the wizard of oz and I decided to flip ahead a few pages, and I got to the part with the hammerheads(a part they didn't put in the movie, thank God)and the illustration of them was SO freaky! I never finished the book because I was scared to get to that page. Also in Black Beauty I went ahead also and there was an illustration of a dead horse(the horse Ginger died)that also freaked me out.

                Hm, what else? I went to disney world in 2nd grade and I went on the Snow White ride, and I freaked, it was just scary, there was this part where the evil witch pops out of nowhere, and I REALLY freaked at another part when she's tipping the rock to squish the dwarves and it falls, I was convinced it was gonna fall on me and my parents! To this day I will not go on that ride. And later we were in line for Pirates of the Carribean, and in the building before you go on the ride there's this creepy laughing, and I freaked and had to get outta there because I thought the pirates were gonna come get me. However, when I went back to disney world in 5th grade I went on with my dad and brother and loved it. And to this day I've loved pirates. :D

                Also, in Busch Gardens there's this ride called Corkscrew Hill...and in the entry you're in these tunnels and there's some freaky chanting playing in the backround...but the ride itself is awesome :D

                  I agree. I still can't watch that part.
                  Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

                    That logo was more borinasdhjkiew *snore*


                    Whoops i'm sorry, it's just whenever I think of the Magnetic Tape logo it makes me fall asleep. So anyway I found that logo more boring than scary. Maybe it's the elevator music. If you replace the music from the original V of Doom logo with cheesy elevator music, it wouldn't be very scary, now would it?

                      		 Let's see.. Unsolved Mysteries was one that would get me every time even when it was about family members reuniting (the beginning was the really scary part) and this special on TV back around 1987 or 1988 called "UFO COVER UP LIVE"... It gave different 1-800 numbers to call depending on what degree of experience you had with aliens!! Slept in my brothers room for 2 whole months hoping they would take him instead of me..LOL!!

                        		 Nightmare on Elm Street scared the crap out of me as a kid. My older sister and her friend forced me to watch it. Lets just it was either the movie or a beating from my sis. She always used to Beat me up bad when we were young. But hey i love horror films these day now thx to her :) But i glad the beatings stopped when i turned 13yrs old and started getting build in high school. Man i was skinning wimp that got picked on alot in Primary school. :(

                            		 Things that scared me as a kid:

                            - 'Unsolved Mysteries'. The music & Robert Stack's voice freaked me out, and I'd leave the room whenever I knew my mom was watching it.
                            - The Undertaker in WWF. Back then, I thought he was actually a zombie (my young mind didn't question why a zombie would be wrestling). Paul Bearer scared me, too. I'm just glad I was old enough to not be freaked out by Kane when he debuted.
                            - Snakes scared (and still scare!) me, thanks to Jake The Snake. Geez, maybe wrestling back then wasn't as kid-friendly as some people might think.....
                            - I couldn't bear the thought of big, hairy spiders (tarantulas) back then. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I vaguely remember Little Richard singing 'Itsy Bitsy Spider' on some show, while playing on a piano customized to look like a giant tarantula. I was NOT ready for that :shock: .
                            - This one is weird, but there was a "Hot Pockets" commercial that scared me. It had a jingle that went "What you gonna pick? Hot Pockets!". Something about the music, and the VO guy saying "Try Lean Pockets, too!" at the end, sounded evil to me.

                            I know a lot of other things scared me as a child, but that's all I can think of for now.....
                            I Love The 80s!

                              		 I have 3 things that I was scared of, i'll put them in order from Most Scary to least (1 being worst, 3 being least)
                              1.) When I'd do something wrong and my Dad would crack the sh*ts at me, yell at me etc.
                              2.) Big Dogs, man they would scare the crap out of me, probably because I wasnt used to them because we owned a small dog and big vicious dogs would also frighten me because as a little kid, my Aunty (which I dont see anymore) tried to put her rotwieler on me to attack me.

                              3.) Older Kids. When I was 2 up to when I was about 8 or 9, i never used to go near the bigger, older kids. Dont ask me why, i think it was like a phobia or something :roll:

                                		 When I was 5 years old, my parents were watching the movie by Stephen King called "IT." The clown in it eats children and it scared the living #$%@ outta me! Especially the part when the clown (Pennywise) pops his head out of a drain in the sidewalk and grabs the little boy and drags him down to the sewer with him!! I am still afraid of clowns to this day because of that movie and I guess I have my parents to thank for this...

                                  		 That was a pretty scary movie for kids. I believe it was a 'made for television' movie which made it more available for the family room. Still a classic.

                                    Seriously tho, that damn clown freaked me out too. I just saw that movie, what, last year? I was 13 and had the crap scared out of me :shock: me and my friend were on the phone watching it at the same time...we were freaked when the kid in the picture winked and the book closed, and the blood started pouring out :shock:

                                      		 Fire. I was terrified of my, or anybody else's, house burning down. I would sometimes stay up all night long so if the house burned down I would know and could get out of there.
