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.

Arachnophobia, the silent killerArachnophobia is no laughing matter, literally 3 people every year are scared to the point of hysterics every day. Not so funny now, is it?
This is my story.
There I am doing the cleaning when I spied a monster spider, it was on the ground, by a nearby window. It was still, it could taste my fear and I knew it, I felt for sure that soon I would be dead. I did the only thing I could do, got a plastic up and placed it carefully over said demon before retreating as a squealing girly mess. Wife will be home, let her deal with it!
So she comes home, tell the story of how I was nearly eaten and she agrees to dispose of the spider. She however knows something I do not.
Next thing I know she's laughing like a lunatic, spider in hand and chasing me around the house saying things like 'it's going to get you'
I freaked out and once again screamed like a woman, before she let me in on the secret. Yes, that stupid movie cliche which never really happens happened. it was bloody plastic.
It had a bit of grass on it, it was by the window, it made sens in my brain. I can't remember being that scared ever.
Length? it had 8 of 'em.
