For me, I think it was being terrified of the vacuum cleaner. The rubber over the power cord had been torn away in one place, leaving the cord partially exposed and I was convinced that any second the vacuum was going to suck up that part of the power cord and explode and kill my entire family. 

I was so scared of the dinosaur part in Fantasia

I was scared of ceiling fans

the spongebob episode with the extreme close-up of a real butterfly

The forklift at Costco

Running barefoot on cement

I was terrified of the hallway in my nana’s house (became my family’s house when I was like four) when the lights were off. To be fair, the house is haunted so I had a little bit of a reason to be scared…

Tall and hairy people.

sharks in the tub.

I didn’t think there were monsters under my bed. I thought there were mummies under my bed. Not reaching for me or cursing me or anything, just laying there, being dead. 

the energizer bunny. His drumming unnerved me and he was large. 

Shopping carts hitting me from behind and the bar at the bottom severing my Achilles’ tendon. I’m still afraid of this.

Gollum from the animated Hobbit film

Airplanes in the sky. If I was playing outside and one flew over I would run under the nearest tree.

This brass snail sculpture my grandmother had. I had nightmares about it.

the loud THX sound effect that played before movies

ok, this is kind of weird, but the only thing i remember being scared of was the submarine ride at disneyland. not going on the ride, but the idea of falling into the water with all those robotic sea creatures just sort of mindlessly moving and  maybe touching me. just thinking about it still makes me twitchy. i don’t have any explanation for this at all – i was never scared of being in the water with REAL sea-creatures.

i was afraid that bank robbers would take my parents hostage. why bank robbers would come to my house was not addressed. my nightmares tended to slow-mo on someone with a kalishnikov shooting holes in the celing. i think i was allowed to watch too many cop shows too young.

The instrumental lead-in to Pink Floyd’s “Time”.

i would cry hysterically every time my dad put on the record when i was 2 or 3. i still remember how that felt.

I was scared my toes would get caught in the shower drain or my hand would get caught in the garbage disposal. I was just all around scared of my limbs getting caught in holes.

The werecats from scooby doo on zombie island.

my family used to have directtv so whenever the ol blue logo bounced around a black screen i hid behind the bed

I was afraid of big bird from sesame street

Escalators. I still am afraid and try to avoid them…

Bugs. Any and every single type of insect 😣 I still get so freaked out by them

Teeth fam. I get super fucked up dreams about teeth

I had a reoccurring nightmare about the fuckin PIXAR LAMP of all the damn things–

Until I was twelve years old I was terrified of Shrek.
