Things that SCARED you when you were young[er]

[Cypriot-Seagull]

The Shining gave me quite a few sleepless nights when I was a kid.

The Spirit of Dark Lonely Water did also cause me a few sleepless nights too.

 

[The Merry Prankster]

I don't get it. Why are they scary?

You're too young to remember their first terrifying appearance. Of course those were more innocent times and I was a bed wetting wuss.

The X-Files opening. Now I think it's awesome funnily enough.

 

[Willy Dangle]

Shit me, I've been terrified of railway lines since I was a kid, about 6 or 7 years old and really thought I dreamt that.

Oh my oh my I would love to see that again

Anyone remember 'Tottie, the story of a Doll's House'?

Very, very spooky. Mid 1980s children's TV stop animation with a live murder caused by the evil beautiful doll Marchpane. Made by the same people who made Bagpuss but way darker. Gives me the creeps thinking of it. Very psychological.

Also, something from the 1970s with a talking chair! Name escapes me.

Good call about 'The Boy From Space.' Had to cover my eyes when 'watching' it in the Television Room in reception class. The teachers had to stop showing it because it frightened too many children.

[Davemania]

That jester off of rent a ghost, timothy or something gave me the right creeps. Also i was absolutely petrified of wolves couldnt even look at a picture of them. Even used to imagine they were rushing towards the house sometimes and scrabbling up the walls to get me at night when i was out of bed.

[HovaGirl]

Saw the very first Dr Who programme in November, 1963, and we really did hide behind the sofa. Thought we were the only ones but it seems everyone did it.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Mr Sin was the Dr Who evil that put the frightners into me by far the most.
