The monster under the bed
Quote from jelliOs
I was, and still am, also deathly afraid of heights.
Same here, even though I went up the Gettysburg Tower I still cant make it past the 2nd step on a ladder. 🤣
One of my stranger fears is when I was little; I use to be afraid of the mixture of clothing and darkness. The clothes looked like they were moving toward me. Trust me it was worse than monsters under the bed.
Actually I have a real monster under my bed. It grabs your ankle and pulls it under and bites it.
...Yeah it was my cat.

My cat gets on the headboard and hits me.
I go away and suddenly the spammers are the mods. Okay, I can adjust to that, but... Gorath?! And what's up with Mam's not being the top poster?

I used to have a cat, who sat at the upper edge of frontal door and jump at everyone who came in. Those were fun times, yes...
I was afraid of being left alone in the dark. I guess it didn't help, that my father used to leave me in my room with lights off, just for fun. I was about 4-5? Someone said - parents are sure fun.
And I was afraid of worms. When I found a bug at sandpit I was playing in I always screamed 😀 That was how my family made me do chores - "Do it, or your cousin will throw bugs at you!"

I used to play with those casted off cicada shells (and sometimes live cicadas) and watch as friends freak out when I secretly cling a few to their back.....good times.
😀 😛 Having fears makes you easy prey for pranks. I know, I always pull them.

I'm starting to be afraid of you O.o
Thankfully, I'm not afraid of bugs anymore. I just passionately hate them.
Oh, there were of course times when I was afraid of Buka (don't remember is it the right name.. anyway - big hairy/slimy thing) from Moomins.

She can do that to a person.
I dislike bugs as well - I almost had a nervous breakdown when my Aunt and MawMaw tried to get me to hold a cricket.

lol, last year i ate a cricket. y'know, one of those bags of dried crickets you get from mexico? my friend had a bag, so i ate one. salty~ :]
EDIT: might have been a grasshopper. =P actually im pretty sure it was a grasshopper..
anyways, im also terribly afraid of heights... i remember the last time i looked off the rooftop of a high building (just 3-stories...) i had to crawl to the edge, my body flat on the ground, and i only peeked over for a second. and that was 6 years ago. but for some reason, this applies more to buildings than planes. i feel kinda freaked out in planes, but not as much... i dunno why. >_>

The reason for my fear of heights is that one time when I was young, I was crawling up the ladder to get on the roof (which I wasn't supposed to be doing, but they were repairing the roof and I wanted to help) And my Grandpa started shaking it and asked me if I knew what happened to the Looney Toons when they got on ladders. Needless to say, I instantly froze and it took them forever to get me off the ladder. I haven't liked heights since.

What country is it that rolls the candied apples in the maggots? That seems gross.
Oh, something my three-year old cousin fears... a wig. We have a black, curly wig in the house and we've tied a string to it. If we wiggle it or put it anywhere near her, she starts screaming.

One of my professors said he ate fried locust in Texas. They look exactly like grasshoppers.
We're starting to overlap with the worst fears thread! Back on topic...well sorta....
My mom used to threaten a monster will get me if I misbehaved....needless to say....it never worked.
Then afterwards she just threaten to throw me out the second story window into the bar across the street.....didn't work either.

oh i remember!! when i was little, my older brother used to tell me horror stories, and he told me one of this kid who was bad in school:
the kid met this old lady who said if he poured animals' blood down the toilet with the door locked and lights off he'd get better grades, but she said to never turn the lights on while doing this. so he killed his dog and poured his blood down the toilet and his grades got better. he went to the old lady again and noticed she looked a lot younger. she said to do the same thing to make his grades even better, so he did the same with his cat. he went to the lady and noticed she looked even younger, and she said to do the same thing. when he was pouring his pet rat's blood down the toilet he got curious. he turned the light on and saw the lady's head in the toilet with her mouth open, drinking the blood.
that was the last straw; with bloody mary, the headless horseman from "are you afraid of the dark?" who could go through walls, and now the scary toilet lady that might eat my butt. i stopped going to the bathroom at night for about 6 years, and i'd always inspect the bathroom before and after using it in the daytime.

Kiddo, I'm sorry, but... I just laughed my head off at that story.
