Clowns, still do to this day but the worst of the lot is Pennywise, couple that with Tim Curry wearing fishnets in Rocky Horror picture Show and that's got to be the scariest image in the world ever!
Spiders.
And the dark.
And any noise that I could not immediately see the origin of.
And this one weird burned face zombie Freddy Kruger-like thing that I saw on a picture once.
And several hundred other things.
Yeah. I was fucking terrified of everything.

A monster that was made up by the Something Awful forums. Slender Man is basically a really tall guy in a suit with tentacles and without a face(but it has a head, it's face is just kind of blank. No hair either).JoshFTL said:
OP: The movie IT absolutely freaked me out when I was a kid. I hated clowns for sooooo long after that movie. still not fond of them
Through a tragic twist of fate I at the tender age of twelve, stumbled upon the film Pet Sematary, late at night in a back room while my parents were at a party (I came along for the ride and was left in a bedroom with a TV). Well at first I had no idea what I was watching and for a while it seemed okay.... until in order:
.... I was Twelve when I saw all those things.
Listen from that day onward I have never been all the way scared by a movie, never since. It traumatised me to the point where I no longer feel fear. Plus I have now lost all initiative to ever want to raise children because well... I've seen the demonic form of the little boy called Gage Creed.
Hi, I'm Gage... wanna be my daddy?
A creepy opening with children singing like ghosts
A guy dies violently, his brain poking out from the damaged wreck of his skull
He returns to haunt the main protagonist
A cat returns from the grave as a vicious mean monster
We see a moment of a savage rotting dog
A prolonged visual of Zelda, a spinal injury suffering scrawny monster looking terrifying. This monster returns frequently.
A sweet little boy be run over by a truck
A backstory of a demonic zombie guy with a creepy laugh
The father digging up the grave of the dead little boy
A demon roaring at him
The baby rising from the grave
A guy getting his cheeks cut open by the demon little boy now holding a scapel
The implication that the little boy's mother gets the same
The undead cat finally dying
An entrance to a possessed house showing us that the little boy's mother is indeed dead, and cannibalised and hanging
The demon little boy being killed by his own father who then watches in horror
The boy's father, deciding that he must ressurrect his wife
His wife returning as a hideous zombie monster passionatley kissing him before killing him with a knife.

heights and being picked up, not to mention spiders and the beach.
Only purpose to the first one is that while i was 6 or 7 we went to Spain as a holiday. My older cousins were left to babysit me in the hotel room whilst our mothers and our nana went shopping. My oldest cousin thought it would be funny to pick me up by the legs and hang me over the 2 floors up balcony. I could see people walking below me and screamed... Next thing i know my mother came up behind him shouted at him and he jumped reasing the hold on one of my legs and almost letting go of my other leg. Needless to say i screamed more until they were able to pull me back up... God he got totally bollocked by my mum etc. lol.

Well when I was a kid I was afraid of the dark, deep water, and heights. Now I am afraid of Roaches, deep water, and heights. -_-
The episode of Round the Twist with the scarecrow that comes to life.
Only thing of my childhood that's given me genuine nightmares.

There are other things I am also scared of too but I'll put them down if I come to them haha lol.
Aha - remembered something already..... Ven-tril-o-quist dolls - :| Nooooo they do scare me :| LOL.
Strangely, death.
I remember very distinctly becoming aware of my own mortality at a fairly early age and being terrified of the dark nothingness that would follow. I cried, got the attention of my parents and seriously needed to be comforted. I'm not sure how they managed that though...
Oddly enough, death still scares me greatly. I just cope with it better now, I guess.
