Silly things you feared as a child

[Subarglue]

When I was a kid I was afraid of wolves and bears because I live in Canada I never wanted to be outside by myself.. Them 90's bears we bad.

As we're already speaking Courage the Cowardly Dog, the Violin Girl has to be mentioned.

That song used to freak me into thinking the government was out to get us for some reason.

Totally inaccurate. And now I love it

Yup, that gave me a jump scare when I first watched it. Holy cow, what is wrong with that girl?

When I was 3, I use to fear vacuums that had headlights. I don't know why, I just did.

I also remember being scared of lightning and tornadoes at one point when I was 10. I got over it after a few weeks.

Tornadoes always have freaked me out. Having seen one coming at me while on a bicycle away from home didn't particularly help either.

I always liked vacuums with lights lol

Flooding rivers and creeks, Any waterway where the water was higher than normal freaked me out as a little kid.

LOL my 1 year old son is scared of big dark things. Black and blue stand up punching bag, black vacuum cleaner he cries like crazy.

 

[Y3old3man]

Them red rubber gloves

I was scared of clowns,ghosts and superglue...

 

[AlvaroF]

Everyone freaks out with superglue. It's glue and it's super and somehow you think it will glue everything it touches.

 

[TB]

Because it totally does!

 

[AlvaroF]

I don't find superglue super. If it was super, there was no way I would be writing this now

 

[TB]

Maybe you just have your super bar set too high.

Also, what did you glue to what?

 

[Bc4]

Really? I think I feel better now knowing I wasnt the only one.

I still think its pretty super

 

[AlvaroF]

Bits of the DualShock2, shoes, bits of cloth etc. A bit of everything and somehow glue ended up in my fingers and never got them glued together, so I don't think it's that super.

Really? I think I feel better now knowing I wasnt the only one.

I still think its pretty super

Of course you're not the only one. Just the thought of glueing stuff together raises the hair in the back of my neck

When I was five or six, I got a video game in a Chex box about an alien invasion, and it scarred (yes, two R's) me so much that I started sleeping with my door closed and had to get shades for my window. After that, I found Alien movies to be more scary than any horror movie. Independence day scared the living hell ot of me, and after I saw Signs, I could not sleep for weeks without having a glass of water next to my bed.

 

[Bc4]

Signs was scary
That part when they showed the alien walk pass the kids my heart was pounding!
Ahahah good times,now I look for all types of scary movies and nothing
I wanna get scared again!

The X Files theme song.

 

[R5]

THIS.



Mission 5 from Ace Combat 4. I remember it being WAY darker on screen , and the combination of the dark, and that music made me so scared when I crashed that I wouldn't play the game for a week.

'Specially when you're 10.

This was one of them.

Another was urinals flushing. I wish I was actually kidding about this but it was bad. In primary I used to not go to the toilet in fear of the urinals flushing. I remember one time it did and I ran away crying. It took my dad taking the top off our toilet, and also standing in front of them for a while to get over it.

Another was, kinda don't know why, but a certain girl in my class. It wasn't that she was creepy, she was nice. I just always got scared around her. I don't think it was love or anything because I was like 8 or something.

Oddly, eating fruit. Don't know why but when I was a child I thought that fruit made you go green and have leaves start to grow on your body. I wouldn't eat any fruit for years due to this rather odd fear.

I just remembered something that scared me as a child.

That's a thing i've only come across recently, and the mix of cartoon and live action just gets more and more disturbing as you go on.

I used to be afraid to eat black seeds from watermelon or seeds from an apple. My mom pounded it into my head that I would grow a watermelon patch/apple tree in my stomach
