What were you afraid of as a child?

[snewoyelhsa]

I never believed in monsters or anything, but I was afraid of ghosts. I remember one night when I was 4, I thought I saw one in my room in the middle of the night and it's safe to say I slept in my parents room for a long time after that...

I was afraid of ghost and the dark.  Now I love the dark.

E.T. scared me to death.  I watch it now and i'm not sure why but i couldn't get over it.

I was terribly afraid of the dark! kinda funny now

think I feared my dad most!! he was a strong willed man, who worked very hard and I was a very timid girl. I was the oldest, so mom & dad made all their mistakes with me.. but they weren't bad parents. I am blessed for the lessons, they taught me well. Dad was a good provider, and mom was a very sweet person... but when dad came  home I would go to my room and read. did I fool him  but he thought I was studying and left me alone. and I suppose I was studying. I was a good straight A student...

I was very afraid of clowns and the dark.It is funny because my kids are afraid of the some thing.There is one more thing I was afraid of and still is that is snakes.

I have always been afraid of the dark. I don't like not being able to see.

I was afraid mom would be in a bad mood again when we got home from school.  If she was, we'd had it, and it she didn't want to whip us, she'd tell us daddy would when he got home.  I never understood how somebody could come in and listen to an angry person and whip 5 kids you weren't even mad at.

I was afraid of the dark when I was young.  Still afraid of it.  I sleep with the lights on now.  I am also afraid of hights.  But 3 years ago I flew on a plane to Fla.  I was nervous before I got on it but when when the plane took off I was calm.  It was a great experience.

My brothers would sit on me and tell me I was smothering so  guess it would be smothering to death. Also I am claustophobic.

 The darkness in the woods, not knowing what could be out there.

I was terrified of closets with open doors. I am fine if the door is closed, but if I walk into a room and the closet door is open I get chills and my heart starts pounding. I come just shy of having a panic attack. I know it is weird and I can't explain why, but that is the way it is. Even to this day it affects me the same way.

i was scared the clown would be under my bed!   then one night i thought this is silly and was going to walk to my bed instead of jumping and my brother was under it and he grabbed my feet...  so no i have a under dresser and crawl into bed with no worries

When I was younger I was afraid of spiders. They terrified me when I was younger.
