Eh...I'm only 14, but have that. The dark just creeps me out. But it's small dark places that are the worst.

And no, I don't have claustrophobia.

Ever read The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Poe? That'll haunt your dreams for years. (those of you who have read it will know why)

I think I've mentioned this somewhere before, but I have an irrational fear of the Glad Man. You know, that creepy white-haired guy on the commercials. I don't know why, but I've always been scared of him. They tell me that it's now a different Glad Man than the one from when I was a kid, but I wouldn't know as I haven't looked at him for more than a split second for about 20 years. There was a teacher at my high school that looked like him, and I would go the other way when he was walking down the hall.

May I just ask who the crap is Glad Man? Is he anything like the Burger King? Cause that guy creeps me out.

There's gonna be some serious bannination up in here if you guys keep talking about the Glad man!

Time for your shot.

I used to be afraid of needles, but not anymore. I just realized, they were only made to help.

I am having too much fun with this topic.

I'm talking about sowing needles, not their medical versions.

I used to be afraid of what we used to call "skeeter trucks." They're those trucks that drive around spraying insecticide to kill mosquitos, and the noise they made would scare the living crap out of me.

Nowadays, I'm more afraid of getting bitten by a mosquito and turning into an Egyptian! (you know, West Nile Virus?)

Yeah, the most deadly creature in Ireland is the bumblebee.

Go figure.

I have always had an irrationl fear of oil candles WHILE they are lit. If they aren't lit I'm fine with them. I always think that they are going to spill and catch the house on fyah.

(those of you who have read it will know why) Yes, I've read it (a few days ago in English Class). It's actually not that scary, to me. I guess I meant to say "Calm Dark Places". When I'm sleeping, I need a radio or a fan on.

I'm-a have a go at this. Fear list: 1. When people knock on your window late at night. Like when my brother was back from a night at the ba he knocked so I would open the door. 2. Hearing things I can't see. 3. Needles. 4. Anything else of the slightest creepyness.

I wouldn't be surprised. At first, I actually thought she was talking about Mr. Clean, but then realized she wasn't. Hey, speaking of creepy mascots of plastic bag companies, anybody remember that finger guy from the old Ziploc commercials? He used to bug me like crazy.

A short list. Hights Darkness Spiders (a lot) Bees That sound bugs make when they fly near your ear Blood that's not mine. Germs (somewhat, I wash my hands all the time with germ-X but other than that I'm fine) Dogs Those sounds that houses make that sound like footsteps. And.... that's it! Mostly.

Glo Sticks. Really, if I give an explanation of why I'm really scared of them, it doesn't seem so weird. But here go anyway. So I was sitting on the couch, and there was this Glo Stick next to me. So I thought, "Hey! I'll snap it and play around with it." Everyone knows that you have to snap a Glo Stick to get it to light up, so I grabbed both ends and bent 'er back. Suddenly juicy gooey stuff squirts up in my eye and I feel a slight tingle. I grab my eye and run down the stairs. I find a sink and splash some water on it. I go find my mommy. She calls poison control, they tell her to get me to stand in the shower with my head up, eye open. The end.

I used to be afraid of what we used to call "skeeter trucks." They're those trucks that drive around spraying insecticide to kill mosquitos, and the noise they made would scare the living crap out of me. Nowadays, I'm more afraid of getting bitten by a mosquito and turning into an Egyptian! (you know, West Nile Virus?)

I've never heard of those trucks. probably because there are now mosquitos in my country.

As for the Skeeters, they don't scare me like they used to as much as they are just an annoyance. Poison Ivy though, that I'm run from, mostly because if I gets it again, it won't be pretty.

Okay, I just spent a LOT of time looking for a picture of him. And his name isn't "Glad Man", I don't think. I don't think he has a name, really, he's just a spokesman. But my search was fruitless, which is lucky for me. Maybe he's just a figment of my imagination? Well, he has white hair and wears a white suit and is creepy. If anyone finds a picture of him, post it and I won't have you banned. I might scream a little, but no bannination.

I used to be afraid of my Grandpa, when I was little. Old people used to scare me. And then there was this one thing in Kid Pix (the old one) in the video section. It was like, a ghost. And it made noises. Jibbly.
