Fears and Phobias
I'll level with you. I'm really freaked out by loose buttons. I'm fine while they're doing their job, but once they're free the evil bastards are a major threat to my life. Tell us what spooks you, and how you cope. Also: church bells, doner kebab salads, death.

The dancing spider
I once trapped a huge spider in a Ferrero Rocher box, when it made a sudden appearance on the bedroom windowsill right by my elbow, as I was enjoying a spliff one balmy summer's night. Huge really was the word, too - big body and long legs.
As terrified as I can be by these sinister spawn of nightmare, once it was safely locked inside a perspex box it became really interesting and I spent some time studying its loathsomeness at close quarters.
Finally it was time to go to bed and, in a spliffy haze, I put the box on top of the bedside lampshade so I could watch it for a little while longer before I fell asleep.
It was quite still at first, then began to explore it's surroundings, moving across the base of the box. It obviously wasn't happy in captivity but I hadn't expected the degree of fury it showed by getting more and more agitated inside the box.
It ended up (quite literally) violently dancing around the box, all its legs pumping up and down like some arachnophobic Riverdance, before flipping over onto its back and twitching a bit before lying still.
It was only then that I remembered that spiders have their nerve-endings in their feet. Not only had I killed a spider, I had in effect tortured it by sitting the box almost directly on top of a hot lightbulb and baking it to death.
I almost felt guilty. Then I remembered that it was a spider and rejoiced in my inadvertent ingenuity. Then I felt guilty again. Then rejoiced.
I will probably burn in spider hell for this.

By putting the spider on top of the lamp.
I have this bizarre mental picture of a macabre spidery shadow dance projected onto your ceiling..
