Write a Story About One of Your Childhood Fears

[One-Punch Man 316]

Write a story about a time something freaked you out as a kid. I will start!


As a six year old kid I had a big crush on Raven Symone; the girl how acted as Raven in the show "That's So Raven". 

I liked the show a lot, and thought it had an interesting premise, with her having the ability to see into the future, so i watched it whenever I could. One night, I was watching the show with my mother, sister, and brother in the living room. The episode started off normal, Raven having to babysit some girl as I recall...and it interfering with some guy she liked. Raven had a "flash forward" sequence pop into her head of her in a big pink room, as she screamed, and fell down, before the sequence ended. I remember finding that funny as a kid, but not for long.

As the episode went along, and "That's So Raven" shenanigans ensued, Raven, the guy she liked, and the girl she was baby sitting went to a museum.  Raven somehow fell into this giant model of the human stomach....and it just turned from funny to way too strange super fast. I remember getting up and leaving the room because of just how uncomfortable I was, and went to my room and flipped to something else. I could still hear the sequence with Raven in the stomach happening in the next room, so I shut the door and turned the TV on, it was on the Discovery Channel; a documentary about giraffes giving birth, if i recall correctly. xD

I never have watched That's So Raven since then, and I don't plan to. That episode just kind of ruined it for me.

I used to be terrified of salt! My mom said if I ate too much of it I'd turn into a fish, it was horrible.

As a kid, I was always afraid of thunderstorms and tornadoes. So I kept on having these dreams that a tornado would be heading towards me, I would go in the basement, the tornado would find me, and it would eat me. I still have those dream up to this day, but rarely.

It wasn't until I got much older when I started being scared of everything. It turned out to be part of my anxiety, finding stuff that is so scary, just so that you are scared. It's stupid, but anxiety knows how to screw you over.

I always feared that a man or just some bad guy in general would come into my room w/a gun. Not really sure where the fear stemmed from but a kid at my school at the time said he had the same fear so I didn’t feel too alone about it.
