ReplyDeleteMy greatest fear as a child was bees and wasps. I was sitting on a riverbank and put my elbow down on the grass and I got stung twice. This scared the beejeezus out of me. I could never be in the same room as a bee or a wasp otherwise I'd freak.
ReplyDeleteGreat book choice by the way :D

My greatest fear as a child was this scary witch on a children's TV program back in 1960 - I think she was called Swamp Witch Hattie? Brrr.

One of my greatest fears as a child was the witches of Wizard Of Oz. Especially when The wicked witch of the East got crushed by Dorothy's house, I still have nightmares about that.

I am with you on this one.
ReplyDeleteI was terrified of the dark especially if I was alone.
With a vivid imagination I just knew there was all kinds of scary things in every shadow and under every bit of furniture.
Luckily I got over this when in my teens.
Thanks for the giveaway.

Hmmm ... I don't really remember having been afraid of anything! Wait! I used to be one of those kids who watched horror movies on VHS on foggy afternoons while her parents weren't home yet and then call Mom to tell her the film was sooo scary (Mom would say "The turn it OFF!")

1st of all I wanna say that your blog design surely looks creepy :p
ReplyDeleteWell my fear when I was a child was similar to yours... just that I use to develop it...dunno for what reasons...since childhood only I had the habit of checking out horror flicks or check out haunted stories on channels..and after that when I use to sleep and get up in the middle of the night, all those stories use to come in my mind.. as if somebody is standing besides me.. spooky eyes staring at me.. a shadow running past me and stuff like that.It was gay but it was fun ^_^
Well now for your awesome gruesome giveaway :p

HummmI would say probably my closet. I would have to check it 3 or 4 times just to make sure nothing was in it, and then I'd run back and jump in my bed under the covers.

When I was a kid, I was the one reading Scary Stories by Alvin Schwartz, and scaring all my friends at slumber parties by retelling them. I was basically fearless, except for one thing:
ReplyDeleteSpiders.
UGH. I hated and still hate spiders, with their creepy eight legs (who needs eight legs, anyway), and the way they scuttle across the ground and hide when you turn the lights on, and okay that's enough. I'm giving myself the creeps.
Thank you for hosting this giveaway.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was a child I owned a very fancy antique mirror that was carved so that it looked like it had eyes in the mirror frame. I use to have nightmares that the eyes would glow red and that there was an evil spirit in the mirror that wanted to come out, kidnap me, put me in the mirror and take my place.

Kathy, wow! I couldn't resist and commented. That was kind of awesome. Very powerful imagination :)
ReplyDeleteI had a totally random fear as a kid - that all the bridges in the world would fall down at exactly the same time - usually while I was on one! I used to plan how I would get to school avoiding bridges and think they would stay up if I held my breath while on one...really bizarre I know!

ReplyDeleteWhen I was little I was terrified that Freddy Kruger would get me. My parents were watching it one night and I snuck down and watched a little bit and will never forget how scared I was!! I was terrified he was coming to get me because I snuck down. It was hell to get to sleep for 2 years. I still cant watch those movies.

My greatest fear was a draw between Ventriloquist Dolls (still hate them today) and being locked in the toilet (probably because that actually happened to me, I got locked in my grandparents toilet - took my mum and grandad 4 hours talking to me through the door to get it open again).

I was convinced there was a madman who lived in the crawl space in our attic area. The way you accessed the attic area was at the top of my bedroom closet. I was sure that I was going to murdered in my sleep by this madman, so I made my parents install a lock on the outside of my closet door or I wouldn't sleep in there.

My greatest fear as a child was and still is by the way; BEES! I was stung while playing in the pool and got so swollen that I had trouble breathing. I had to be rushed to the hospital because it turned out I was and still am allergic to bee stings. I freak out any time a bee comes near me. I had a accident in the car because a bee came in the window while I was driving. I hit a parked car. Fortunately, I was stepping on the brake and didn't do too much damage to that parked car. The owner didn't even get my info because he was so busy laughing when I told him I was sorry for hitting his car, but I was trying to avoid the bee that came in my car. <^_^>

ReplyDeleteHonestly, I can't really remember having any real fears when I was a child. I wasn't one of those kids that were afraid of the dark, or what was under the bed, or lurking in a closet. I did have cousins that were terrified to sleep in my room whenever they spent the night, because I had porcelain dolls all over my room. So you could see the shapes of them all around you when the moon shone through my window lol. But I felt safe with them there. Not for lack of imagination, as I had a great imagination when I played. But I used to watch scary movies a lot when I was a little girl. I liked them. Still do. So I think that's why those kinds of things didn't bother me lol.
ReplyDeleteI have a fear of spiders now, and most any creepy crawlies lol. That was something that didn't bother me when I was a kid either though. I used to play around with them.
The only real thing I could think of that maybe scared me(and I would constantly dwell on and obsess over) was my grandmother's (and her daughter, my aunt's) constant religious ramblings. She'd frequently remind me that I was now old enough to burn in hell (not the words she would use of course lol, but basically what she meant)for my sins. And talk about the devil, the anti-christ, judgement day, etc. She didn't like that I participated in Halloween activities, the books I read with questionable (to her) content, and movies/cartoons/video games I watched/played involving magic, the paranormal, and anything that wasn't happy rainbows and pink fluffy bunnies. I think she thought she could scare me into living a "good Christian" life. So I constantly had all that floating around in the back of my mind. I'm over it now though. And I don't think I was such a bad person then, or even now that I contantly needed to hear all that. Anyways, that's probably really the only thing I was afraid of as a child.

This past weekend actually, my fiancee and I went to a Haunted House and sure enough, there were evil clowns!!! Scared the crap outta me for sure!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to everyone and Happy Halloween!!

When I was a child, I was afraid of ghosts. A lot of people are, i imagine them sitting in the corner staring at me. It gave me a freaking heart-attack every time i thought i saw something move.

My greatest fear as a child was the old 'monster under the bed'. Although, mine was highly based upon 'Gmork' from The Neverending Story, although my monster had glowing red eyes, not green eyes.
ReplyDeleteI refused to move from my bed until morning for fear that the monster under my bed would pull me under and proceed to eat me alive.

I feared the dark too. But I outgrew it when I watched the Nightmare before xmas. I loved the dark then because I was hoping to see zero (the ghost dog).

ReplyDeleteSpiders, probably. Or insect in general. It still scares me a lot.
But I've never had the problems with being afraid of dark or creatures hiding in it.
Ok, maybe I had, but only when I was older and after I watched a horror movies (I still remember how I couldn't be alone at home in the dark after watching Halloween [haha, funny. But seriously, that man scared me to the death] or Grudge.

When I was a kid, I was so afraid of mirrors in the bathroom in the dark. It's b/c of that "Bloody Mary" story my 3rd grade friends told me. When I told my little sister the story, she freaked out too and made me sit in the bathroom while she took a shower. I guess she wanted me to protect her!

ReplyDeleteMy childhood fear (and my still my fear now) is the fear of falling. When I was a child, I used to have nightmares about being in a mall with my parents, when suddenly they go down this escalator. I don't follow them and stay at the top of the steps, watching them walk away. When they are a bit further, everything around me starts to crumble away, the escalator, the floor, the walls and ceiling. Next thing I know, I'm falling and then I wake up. Even now, I'm not good with heights because I feel like I might topple over the edge or things might come crumbling down.

When I was younger, my biggest fears were dolls (specifically puppets) and mummies. Hated puppets because I didn't like how they always seem to stare at you and I had a fear that they could talk without humans. I hated mummies because I watched an episode of Reading Rainbow and it was about mummies and how they became mummies and I was done for. They showed some and I just couldn't take it. I am still a little freaked out by them if I am being honest LOL! Great giveaway hon, thank you :)
