Stuff that scared the $#!@ out of you (and maybe still does)

[Patty Thundersnow 4,199]

Close, loud thunder claps. No matter how old I'll get, I'll always jump when those occur.

I am afraid of insects, definitely insects.

But also...  @Snow being an Imperium loyalist 

 

But also I am really afraid of troath sounds, due to my misophonia, though I guess this one was already pretty much known by many people 

[CheeryFox 23,822]

Spiders and bears. Creep factor 11!

A terrifying confrontation by gunman was the absolute most worst feeling that had ever shaken me. The possible end of my life was all I can feel. I was powerless, scared, trembling with fear with no sense of what will happen to me. I'm glad that the worst didn't happen and luckily still here. It's haunting and very disturbing when I recalled that very moment.

The type of sound where a monotone voice or just beeps without anything behind them just freak me out. 

(Examples include Number Stations and the Metroid item room music.)

I loved watching the original Powerpuff Girls on Cartoon Network when I was young. But there was this one episode that haunted me on television. It's called 'Tough Love' and it demonstrates how the power of hate is a terrible thing. I can't talk about the episode without those horrific images in my head and it's all the tap-dancing crab demon's fault.

Yellow Jackets. I nope the hell away from them asap.

[AJ2489 2,855]

I used to go out of my way to avoid swans. I'm still not great around them, if I'm being honest

Those Eldritch Abominations known as Velociraptors from Jurassic Park:

I'm still scared by scary movies in general, which is why I don't like to watch them 

Besides that, when I was younger I used to be freaked out at night by my bedroom door rattling itself in the middle of the night. As I got older though I realized that it wasn't a monster rattling the door, it was out house's air-conditioning kicking in and changing the air-flow in the room, making the door slightly rattle back and forth a little

@Mickey Adaptus The holy order of the emperors Inquisition has reason to believe you are a heretic *cocks bolt pistol* how do you plead?

Jump scares in movies always get me, even if I can tell they are coming.

[Nature Tune 8,392]

Scared the shit out of me? Holes. And heights. And ROACHES. 

[Catpone Cerberus 23,672]

Actually same with the latter; I can’t even kill them or step on them, I hate that crunch  D: . Won’t begin to describe them.. 

When you say you’re trypophobic, how serious is it  ? I just feel grossed out seeing it on.. skin..

[Frostgage 7,976]

Heights, deep water, and anything with a stinger

Roaches...

I dunno why I'm scared though...I mean, I'm more than willing to pet a spider, a rat or a snake...and I've even eaten insects before...

There's just something about roaches...

Oh, very serious. Like ESPECIALLY on skin, but looking at a beehive gives me the shudders.

I'm still scared of my auditory hallucinations. Sometimes I even get visual ones. It's kinda like being in a horror movie. You just really have to experience it yourself to understand.

[BornAgainBrony 2,398]

Still the freakiest music ever

[SkyPie 261]

Many movies scarred me for days after watching them when I was younger, but they don't phase me now. Example being I am Legend.

I wouldn't say stairs scare the poop out of me, but they do make nervous ever since I fell down steep, concrete ones and shattered my ankle two years ago. 

This one video that showed the creepiest videos ever, especially one in particular that turned on the light to look into a mirror. I still feel uneasy thinking about it.

Spiders.

I've always had a phobia of them. Over here in the UK we get giant house spiders. They're harmless and will only bite if seriously provoked. But the speed they can move and how they move, it sort of sends me into a state of panic. I once discovered one on my elbow when I went out into the utility one night. I didn't know it was there for a good while. I mean it had every opportunity to bite me, but it never did. Of course when I saw it, I shook it off and leaped as far away as I could. Then there was a really large one that appeared on my desk lamp while I was working late at night. That one really shook me up, more than the one on my elbow. I had to use a large tupperware box to catch it. A pint glass really wasn't gonna cut it with that one.

I've been getting better over the years with spiders in general though, but the giant house spiders are still tricky for me. But regardless, I always force myself to catch them so that I can put them outside somewhere safe. I know it can be harmful to put them outside during certain periods, so I'm always careful where I release them. I've sort of tried to learn more about them to help get rid of the fear. But the thing with a phobiaI find is that it isn't like an average fear. With your bog standard fear, you can just work up the courage to throw yourself at it. With phobias? They're kind of alien.

One of those things where Fluttershy really puts me to shame.
