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?

« Go Back

When I was about five or six I was off school with an inevitably made up illness. I was in my living room watching Dumbo with my duvet over me.
In my infinite wisdom I decide to go in between my duvet and its cover and then couldn't find my way out. I panicked and thought I was going to die.
Unfortunately this coincided with the part of Dumbo where he gets drunk (which is more like a freaky acid trip). Fortunately my brave father was on hand to hear my screams and help me.
I still can't watch that bit of Dumbo without feeling worried for my safety.
First post, be gentle...
