What scares you the most...
I was just wondering, with all the horror books in the world based on so many fears and random scary stuff, what is it that scares us the most?
Is it clowns, little girls, spiders, being buried alive, dead people coming back to life, dying, never dying, seeing dead people, some dead guy with knives on his fingers, etc.
Or are they all the base fears that stem from when we were just living in caves?
As you can see, the choice is myriad.
Let's see what we can come up with, shall we?

As for me, i fear the very concept of the Devil and also every single spider on the planet, i hate the things, always have and always will. Some people dont think twice about them but they turn my blood cold.

In movies and books the paranormal scares the crap out of me. The things that aren't seen but make themselves known.

I got a quarter way through that article, but i had to leave it as all the pics were freaking me out. I have always hated them, there are no real dangerous spiders here in Ireland but when i see them slithering on the wall, creeping across the floor, i just have to kill em straight way, none of this 'throw it away' business, they are dead. Its one of the reasons why Australia would freak me out, over there the common spider is a big huge furry monster that hides in cars, showers etc. I could not relax or be at ease knowing that many spiders were around me...Tip the Bottle wrote:Mike I am so completely with you when it comes to spiders, they are little demons released from hell just and have no purpose other than to instill fear in the deepest hearts of men.

Know what you mean about the movies, too, its the impression your mind forms of what could be causing that noise which is usually scarier than the actual reality of the slathering creature behind the door.

I see, sorry to say, but this is why you will die from a spider. They've tricked you in to believing that some of them aren't dangerous. These are the most dangerous ones.StephenKingman wrote: there are no real dangerous spiders here in Ireland
You'll walk in a room, look down and figure "Oh it's one of those non dangerous spiders I think I'll kill it.". Then as your foot comes down the spider it will reach up, grab your toe, flip you on to your back and have it's killing leg at your throat. There is nothing you can do, nothing but die. I'll mourn your passing.
