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.

The other day
having just moved into a top floor flat above a row of ictorian shops, I was itching to get into the loft to see what kinds of stuff I could find. Anyway, up I went with a torch, looking around and finding trunks of stuff. Unfortunately, the trunks were empty. However, due to the design of the house I knew that there was a turret area in the loft and I was sure that this either held a WW2 anti aircraft gun or a giant telescope. As I swung my torch round to find the said turret, I noticed that there was a mattress next to it and next tot his mattress was a bucket - a bucket for shitting in after waking up on that mattress! I then noticed aerosol cans on the mattress as well.
As I swung round to get out of the loft, I noticed that the frame work of the roof was not in a pattern, that there was bits of wood and what appeared to be trapdoors where there shouldn't be.
SO I came downstairs and had a cigarette, contemplating what to do when I suddenly heard a crashing coming from up there. Shit I thought, he knows I know he is up there and he is gonna get me. I went and woke up my girlfriend and said to her very quietly "I think there is a man in the loft" and recounted to her exactly what I had seen. I went and got the biggest knife I had from the kitchen, and prepared to face the loft man.
So, I went into the loft and climbed through the various beams, making my way to this bastards mattress. shitting myself I got closer and closer, realising that the mattress was covered in dust and haddened been used for quite a few years.
I also checked out the trapdoors and realised that these were just roof access.
I am much better at scaring people
