Scardey Cats Unite

[JokerCrowe]

I just came to the conclusion that I'm like the only person in the world who is not afraid of clowns. I am a scaredy cat though. Well... the scary thread scared me. I still can't really fall asleep comfortably at nights and I was on the thread like a week ago.

The things that scare me are mostly things I imagine myself. I'm not really afraid of anything physical (cuz Imma Mauwnly Mauwn!) but my mind plays tricks on me a lot. the bastard.
But Scary little girls with mutilated face which they hide behind their long black hair are scary and one of the physical things I'm afraid of. Even though they probably don't exist. I also don't like flying bugs, especially the kind that takes a huge bite out of your lithe, supple body.

Well... it's a classic but spiders. Even if I never really saw a "big" one yet, I have no idea why I'm that scared of them. Sure I'm trying to get used to it and stop being afraid of them but it seems to come in a bipolar fashion, they don't affect me that much for a while, then couple month later I can barely stay in the same room as one without my body being stiff and my eyes fixed on it, to the point I would never even try to go close and kill it even if I wanted. Fear of death to a degree, and height only if I have to jump, I can go on a building, up a bridge, tree, whatever and look down with ease, but don't tell me I HAVE to jump to get down. Other then that, well I'm more constantly paranoid then really scared. Proof? well the fact I calmly walked in the woods in a moonless night while being "drunk" could be the closest thing to a proof I can come up with. But since I rarely drink enough to feel anything and that by paranoid that means I jump at a lot of unexpected sounds and whatnot, I'm probably a scardey cat as well. Hello you who read past this.

I'm scared of large male humans... Semi-irrational, but I'm not very big and I'm not a fan of anyone having any kind of power or advantage over me, so there's that.

I'm claustrophobic. If my arms are free and I can move my whole torso, I will still panic if my legs can't move. It gets worse if it's a small, dark space. I can't sleep if my room is dark and silent. Need sound. I can sleep in a pitch black room, so long as I have my Zune.

Don't like spiders, but I can deal with them so long as I have access to someone else's shoe or shoes.

I'm not sure why, but I'm absolutely freaked out by museums.

I mean museums that have dinosaur bones and animatronic animals set up, they just scare the shit out of me, I don't even know why. I even had trouble in the Museum of History in Fallout 3, that room with the woolly mammoth was probably the most terrifying thing in the game for me.

And don't even get me started on The Rainforest Cafe. I will NEVER go in that place, ever.

Eh. I'm afraid of everything. Almost. I can't even go downstairs at night without being absolutely terrified of what might be behind me. I can't walk up a staircase without being nervous that I might fall. Horror films, no matter how unrealistic, childish, or intentionally funny, will terrify me. And I haven't slept properly since I found out about the Slender Man.

Bugs scare me... Almost accidently touched a silverfish the other day... I was so terrified, I just stood there shaking for ten seconds before I was able to reach for a vacuum and suck it up...

Another user mentioned clowns, I second that, there is something....evil about clowns, i don't understand how anyone can view them as funny.
To my eyes it's always been obvious that underneath their cheery facade clowns are resentful balls of pure hate, plotting your doom as they "entertain" you.

The other thing that creeps me out are dolls/mannequins, especially sleeping in the same room as one. Maybe i've watched too many horror films involving them when i was young D:

 

[Nostalgia Ripoff]

I'm entomophobic, which means I'm afraid of bugs. Only in real life, though. On screen, I can handle 'em fine.
