my sister knocked at my door, and i opened it. the first thing i saw when i opened the door was her pointing a REAL gun straight in my face! this was absolutely horrifying because i wouldn't put shooting me in head past her. and all that bitch could do was laugh at my screaming. i really hate her...

I remember I was laying down on the couch outside my brother's room at 3:00am. It was very dark, and the only light was coming from his room. I heard someone slowly and quietly come down the stairs. As I was about to get up and run into my bro's room, he locks me out. I bang crazy on the door.
"Open the door!! Please, he's coming! Open the door!" And all I can hear was a muffled, "Hell no! You're screwed."
I jumped back on the couch and went under the covers when my dad turned on the lights. He had a broom in his hand(and he wasn't going to sweep)
"What are you doing awake?!"
"I-I'm not doin anything."
"You are not supposed to be awake now!"
He hit with the broom like 3 times but it wasn't as painful because the covers were protecting me. Then he went upstairs and then my stupid brother opened the door and let me in. What a bastard!

I've had three.

About three years ago, my mother started having chest pains. We all thought she was having a heart attack. That turned out to not be the case, but I was so scared when the pain started.

I was getting out of my car to go to class about six months ago, and as I went to grab my keys from the ignition, I saw a spider about the size of a quarter right next to them. I am terribly arachnophobic. I screamed and leapt out of my car. After 15 minutes of regaining my composure, I decided to just go to class. When I got out, I walked to my car and took off one of my shoes. I opened the door, and couldn't find the spider anywhere. I flipped the visor, and it came falling. I started smacking with my shoe, but didn't hid it. It fell underneath the seat, and it wouldn't come out. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH A DEMON SPAWN LYING IN WAIT TO KILL ME RIGHT UNDERNEATH MY ASS.

As for the third, this is going to sound really odd. I was home by myself one day, and it felt like there was someone in the house with me. I started walking around the house, but couldn't find anyone. I heard something in the kitchen, and walked in. Once again not seeing anyone, I grabbed a long knife from my drawer. Then I heard my screen door in front shut. The main door however, didn't make any noise. I was scared shitless, and I left the house for the rest of the evening.

Two really.

I was in 1st grade, with my family at a friend of my dad's house, and when we were getting ready to leave, my dad's car didn't have the parking break. *Manual-shift* It started moving backwards when I was getting in, so I chased after it, and one of the tires got stuck on my FOOT. I was screaming, my mom thought I was scared they were going to leave me, until I started screaming, "Move the car! Move the car!" I thought my foot was broken...

This one was just a bit ago. I mentioned it in the cancer topic. My dad told me my Aunt had cancer, and I didn't really realize it. The next day, my family was talking about it at home, and I asked when Aunt Renee was going to be okay. They then told me what happened, and it actually sunk in. I was horrified. I thought Aunt Renee was going to die. *I have mental depression, I always think the worst will happen* I learned about it on a Monday, and she had gotten results from surgery on Thursday. Luckily, Aunt Renee was fine. Only thing is, it was ovarian cancer, so now she is incapable of having kids.

This happened, about three years ago. My mom and I just came back from the mall. We were getting near the house, when I saw two eyes up in a tree. I dropped my bags, and screamed. It was a racoon, or something, but it sure as hell scared me.

Well, about two months ago, I was staying up late like I always do. I had my headphones on for I'd say a good two hours. Now, my room is at the front of the house, meaning that if you look outside my window, you're looking at the street. So I had my music playing and I thought I heard something. I took off my head phones and heard what sounded like a man screaming angrily in the distance (like down the street). I freaked and turned out the lights and grabbed the big sushi knife I have in my room (don't ask -_-). I heard it again, only a little closer. After about twenty minutes of not hearing anything, I decided to try and go to bed. Within a few minutes I heard what sounded like a body being dragged down the street. It was like a quick dragging sound that happened every few seconds. The next day when I told my parents they didn't believe me (I had watched Sleepy Hollow the other day so they thought that it made me scared, even though I didn't find it scary AT ALL).

Probably the scariest moment in my life was when a few years back when I had long hair, I decided to light a candle. I don't know if I was on something or what that day, but I was completely obvilious to the fact that my hair was dangling into it and I did not notice until my hair caught fire. Thankfully I managed to douse it out by putting my entire head in the kitchen sink and turning the water on full blast. Needless to say I needed a trim after that, but otherwise I was completely fine and I didn't have any burn injuries.

Two:

In 2001 my grandfather died and we all went to Johnson City for the funeral. The night we got there I had to sit around with everyone but my mother, grandmother, and cousins drinking. I swear one of my uncles had been doing drugs as well because he suddenly started threatening my mother and then began strangling another uncle. My mom got my cousins and myself into the car while he had gotten up screaming he was getting his gun and we called the police. I refuse to stay at my grandmother's overnight now.

A year and a half ago I was involved in a car accident. I had gotten the green arrow to turn left, but I was hit by an elderly couple who ran their light halfway through the intersection. Most of what happened was a blur, but I remember being so frightend because I was completely off guard and there was blood on my hands (I had scratched a finger). I remember being in complete hysterics until getting to the hospital and they had to give my tranquilizer pills to calm me down. I think the whole incedent made me clausterphobic because I had at least a dozen people surrounding me and asking me if I was alright. There were no serius injuries (just needed to go to the chiropractor), but it took a month for the body shop to repair the damage to the frame of the car.

Hrm...I have a few as well.

1) I hadn't had my driver's license very long...I was taking my mother's car to go drive into town to see Derek. My family and I used to live about 45 minutes from town, so it was quite the tedious drive. I got into the car, and was crossing the bridge over the dam that i've crossed a million and a half times...well, I don't really know what caused it, but..I sort of..went blank...almost like falling asleep, but..I don't remember falling asleep. Next thing I know, the side of the car smacks into the rail of the bridge, and just SKIDS along it. I screamed and jerked the car into the road, then slowed down until I got off the bridge. I had totally destroyed the side of my parents car...but worse off, I could have gone over that damn bridge had I not woken up and realized what happened.

2) My college graduation..I was getting my associate's. The Bastard (the guy who sexually assaulted me) showed up at that graduation, and my father and brothers almost beat the shit out of him in the parking lot. The scariest moment, however, was when I went into the reception and saw him there..and it was the first I knew that he was there (Minda and Derek had been trying to keep it from me). He and I looked at eachother face to face, and I was so terrified..then I just LUNGED at him, wanting to kill him. Minda had to drag me out of there. I was shaking for hours.

3) I used to live in a haunted house. Believe me or not. Well, I realized I wasn't going crazy when I walked into thek itchen, where my mom was loading the dishwasher, and a tupperware container on the COMPLETE opposite side of the room FLEW off the counter on its own so hard that it skidded about 6 feet away. That just made me want to piss my pants.

I'm also terrified of fire..I have pyrophobia. So any instance where fire is near me, I get breathless with fear.

One of my cousins has been undergoing cancer treatment for about a year and a half. The scariest moment I've had was a phone call from my mom saying that he might not make it through the night after a bad reaction to the aggressive chemotherapy they'd given him. My cousin's 7, and he's like a little brother to me, so you can imagine how scared I was.

Sometime last year I suddenly started having an irregular heartbeat. I could feel it slowing and then skipping a beat, and I constantly felt like I was sinking into myself… it went on steadily for three or four days then it just as suddenly stopped. I didn't say anything to my mom, because I was worried about her spending money on me that was needed to pay bills. I was actually more worried about our tight income than I was about my life.

The symptoms scared me, but my reaction scared me much more. I never imagined I could be so calm when I thought I was about to die.

0__o Weird, but the exact same thing happened to me about three months ago. Irregular heart beat that went away four days later. I also didn't say anything (same reason as you). It was really scary because it feels like your heart is about to explode at any minute.

i don't know how forgot this: it was 2 a.m. and i had been asleep. i was having this weird dream about pocket monsters watches that were beeping really loudly. i woke up at the sound of my sister screaming to realize the sound i'd heard was the smoke alarm. my sister, my mother and i sat outside (during the winter mind you) in our pajamas for hours while the fire fighters did whatever it was they were doing. the house was flooded and the kitchen was completely ruined. the scariest part of it was that if my sister wasn't such a light sleeper, we'd all be dead by now, because she was the only one in the house awoken by the sound of fire alarms!

i didn't mention this before as i didn't think it was that big a deal, but what the hell: i was sitting in the car at a gas station with my mom when this shifty looking guy started coming toward us. he began to stand at our car, when my mom noticed him she began speaking with him. he kept his hand in his pocket the entire time and i knew he was hiding a gun. it was at that moment, i knew for a fact i was going to die. what an indiscribable mixture of overwhelming emotions. anyway, it turned out he was just asking my mom for directions. as we drove home, i thanked god the entire way.

here, i'll put spoiler tags around this last one as it may offend some people. view at your own risk: [spoiler] i was *ahem* "with" my girlfriend one night and the "you know what" came off. anyway, weeks later, she had still not... "you know". i'd told all my friends about it, they'd tried to put a humorous spin on it, but i was absolutely terrified. eventually, she did "you know" and once again, i thanked god with every cell in my body.[/spoiler]

Two moments here.

This first one, it's actually a lot funnier now that I look back on it. Freaked me out when it happened though. We were in middle school at the time and it was raining one night. My best friend and I decided to read one of her Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books and it was the story of That Dog. Anyway we got to the end of it and I read the last line about that dog and suddenly we looked over and saw what at first looked like a little black dog at our window just like in the story. We screamed. Turns out it was my black cat. The rain and the fact that it was dark outside made her look different. We stopped reading stuff like that afterward.

This second one actually was freaky. Last 4th of July, my friends talked me into going to my very first parade. We bought food and fold up chairs and got fairly good seats on the street. I was excited. Seafair was really cool. Long after 10pm it was finally over and very dark outside. We all walked to 5th avenue to catch a bus and go home. We're standing there at the bus stop when out of no where someone yells to hit the wall. I wasn't sure what he meant when suddenly out of nowhere a flood of young people were running down the street. Gun shots were heard and everyone was going nuts. Jessica's boyfriend tired to sheild us against the wall. I was scared and not quite sure what exactly was going on. Just when we thought it was over it started up again. They were trampling anything in their way. I prayed that it would finally stop. It took a long time, but the police finally got it under control. I'm a little nervous about attending anymore parades downtown near night time.

The only one that stands out to me is when ... edited by Anthy. She's decided not to share.

Another one was at a party a few months ago. I was with my friend Josie, who decided it was a great idea to get really trashed. Without the safety of proper judgement, she tried hash for the first time and started babbling about raincoats. She couldn't walk without falling down and had no control of her arms and legs. I had to carry her to the bathroom and hold her so she could puke. She was very... yeah. It's not something I particularly like talking about.

The scariest moment of my life was probably when my lover was kidnapped. Not knowing where he was or what was happening to him, was terrifying. Not to mention that a lot of terrible things happened to him. I don't think I was ever as afraid as I was then.

Also, when my beloved friend had a heart attack. Trying to help him through it, keeping him breathing, things like that. . . scary.

One of the few things that really got me scared was...

The closing logos for production companies on TV!

I remember back in 1992, my family went to Cleveland, Ohio, and I was watching TV, then all of a sudden, the closing logo for Lorimar Productions "Line of Doom" played, with the music, and after witnessing it, I just literally froze and stood still, without letting out a sound out of my mouth.

There is also closing logos that I'm scared of, including the Screen Gems "S From Hell" and the dreaded Viacom "V of Death" (I didn't make up the nicknames, FYI).

To prove that logo-phobia does exist, check out this webpage:

The diversity in this forum is amazing. . .

Spiders and logos being compared with cancer, rape, and unwanted pregnancy. I never, ever, would have guessed that those moments could be so frightening. :roll: :)

I know it sounds silly that spiders could be compared with those things. But for me, spiders ARE that way. I have serious arachnophobia. I've went into panic attacks because of Daddy-Long-Legs crawling on me. I understand that it's really hard to grasp for those who don't feel that way, but for me, these things are just as scary.
