I have a bad habit of being unable to stop watching an anime until I either have to physically leave the house due to a deadline of some sort so...quite a few shows...
Well I'm not sleeping tonight, thanks.

Haha oh god I exactly know what you mean. I watched the Blink episode and went to bed and kept going "..I'll just open my eyes quickly to see if anything is there. Whew..Nothing." Everytime somebody went to the toilet I suddenly felt shivers up my back and kept my eyes on the door. In the end I just said "Screw this!" and turned the lights on and read Asterix and Obelix till 5 in the morning.
i recently checked out a Swedish book called father revenge ( i had the dutch version so i just translated the title here). it's about a pedophile and it's just really really really fucked up. had a bad night. but that was just me wondering how anyone could ever do such horrible stuff to children.

Nothing have ever kept me from sleeping besides myself and I can only keep myself awake no longer than twenty three hours at most.
I find it rather a annoying but I do get scared by many things.

I know it's stupid,but the first time I watched Mummy.
I freak the hell out when I see decomposing flesh.

Horror films can leave quite an impression on me still despite toughening my skin over years.
To this day there's just one film I couldn't actually finish: 28 days later.
They made zombie apocalypse a lil too believable. After the first 30 mins or so I couldn't take the suffocating atmosphere anymore.
I've seen zombie films before and after and usually all they get out of me is "meh".

Umm...who needs to sleep when you have a computer?Stay on here all night or play games...just make sure you live next to Starbucks.
Silent Hill: I was 10, it was about midnight, and my newly remodled house still had a shifting foundation....
I can't remember which episode it was but Doctor Who (Before David Tennant) there was an episode which was set in WW2 (or maybe WW1 but I'm pretty sure it was WW2) with these sort of zombie like boys in gas masks which kept saying "mummy, mummy, are you my mummy?" and this gave my brothers nightmares. Luckily I have not run into anything scary enough yet to keep me awake. It also helps that I have DSPS (Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome) which means that I can only really fall asleep when it's morning which also means that it will be light out. Light = no scary monsters for me.
Ironicly sleepaway camp (I know, *bum dum chee*) but the ending just freaked me out.
Though the music kinda ruins the effect since it noticeable turns down during the dialog of the scene and then abruptly turns back up when the dialog stops.
main killer was the unpopular girl (surprise surprise) but she was also a boy, the scene wouldn't be that bad but he/she makes some of the strangest noises imaginable and the filmmakers had to show gender proof of her being a boy, the original idea was to put fake male genitalia on her, but the actress was underage so they didn't want her to be partially naked so they made a creepy molding of her entire head and had a male college student wear it as a mask while making animal growling sounds.. so in the end we get this weird frozen face on a body that doesn't match the skin tone and a deep inhuman growl coming seemingly out of nowhere.

Thanks Technical Tommy, I don't know if anyone would have known what I was saying without your intervention.....
Kidding.... sort of.
Anyways, yes I knew, i was merely talking about the game title in general.
Or if you're me, you barely ever set foot in the sea again. Water I can see in, fine, water with no visibility or too deep to see to the bottom, forget it. Sometimes the age ratings on films are there for a reason.soilent said:
Only time I couldn't sleep was after watching Friday 13th when I was 10ish. There is a scene where the killer is hiding under the bed, then pushes an arrow up through the guys neck. At the time I had a bed with a space underneath it, took me a few weeks of checking under it several times a night before I could sleep.
This is embarrassing, but that scene from The Grudge, where the girl is in her apartment, and keeps seeing the shadow of the monster. When she was hiding in her bed, and her sheets came up like a lump, and that thing's face was right there... I'm getting creeped out from just thinking about it...ugh.
Edit** It doesn't sound scary, but also, there was a scene in Drag Me to Hell, where the main character is sleeping with her boyfriend. She wakes up, and turns to hug him or soemthing, and he's this creepy old lady who screams at her...
Combine those two scenes, and you've got a pretty creepy bedroom.

I never really got the big deal about what was so scary about the angels from Blink...oh no, they're going to teleport me back to some random point in time, it's not like that wouldn't be awesome.
