I'm scared of very little - thanks to my stupidence... the only things that really terrify me are genuine scary things - walking around longford in the dark, falling off something high, having heavy things fall on me, these things can usually also be avoided - which is nice....
Scary things that you can't avoid are scarier... For me - the scariest things are lost opportunities - things you'll regret that you didn't do, people you misread/ didn't give a chance to, times you didn't give yourself a chance in something/ judged yourself too harshly and therefore didn't do something that would have been worth doing - more suggestions for the scariest things to the usual address or in the comments puhlease...

The Exorcist. One big brother and his girlfriend snuck me into the cinema to see it when I was 11 and I didn't sleep until dawn for at least six months. Still scares the pants off me.
Oooh Titus, that's a bad big brother - actually worse than mine getting Child's Play out for babysitting duty - mam looked at the title and thought it would be fine - I chewed my teddy bear's nose off!
