This is a question When were you last really scared?

We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.

I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.

When were you last really scared?

As usual, my answer is fairly similar to the actual question example.
It was loads of years ago when I was about 10 or 11. I'd been round a friend's house and we'd watched The Thing and An American Werewolf in London, both dodgy pirate videos (one or other of them was still on in the cinema). They were the first horror films either of us had watched (and you have to admit, we picked a cracking good pair of films to start with).

It was okay for my mate, we were at his house. I had to walk back home.

By myself.

In the dark (most of the streelamps weren't working).

And it was a full moon.

And the dog in a garden the other end of the road started howling at the moon and sounding exactly like the wolf in American Werewolf.

That was a bit scary.
