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?

So as I lay in bed, I hear the resounding "SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH", what sounds like running water. At first I think it's my parents.
I then remember that they are both asleep.
I then assumed I was hearing things, and tried to ignore it.
It didn't stop.
I ran downstairs in the pitch black, turned all the taps off, and ran back to bed.
They turned on again.
I screamed and pulled the covers over my head. I can assume I eventually fell asleep. Either way, it was terrifying.
