How old were you? Was it something you saw on TV? Were you at the movie theater? Was it even supposed to be frightening?
I know that police shows on TV would really bother me. I was not supposed to watch them (this was back when the networks protected children and only showed these shows after the "family hour") but my Dad would occasionally allow me to stay up past my bedtime and I would see some of the police shows he was watching. I was probably about 8 when I saw a particular episode of "Hawaii five-o" that kept me awake all night. It was about a woman being kidnapped and forced into pornography (I certainly didn't really know what they were talking about, but it scared me terribly)I remember my mom getting sooo mad at my dad for that!
How about you?

OH MY GOODNESS yes...it was a sleepover and i was not use to scary movies and they had one and started watching it. It was childs play I'm pretty sure...or those leprechun ones...oh my I was terrified but I didn't let it show cause everyone else seemed to be having a blast...OH mY I sure wasn't!!! [mag_keizer2007]
My first scary movie was at a sleepover too! We saw Halloween! I was scared too and didn't get much sleep! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
Oh boy, we're talking a long time ago, haha. The very first scary movie I ever saw was "The Thing" back in the 50s. My sister took me to see it and it scared the living daylights out of me. This was especially because it dealt with UFO's and Aliens, etc. Back in the 50s UFO's and such were the talk of the town, so this movie just scared everyone. Started me on my way to loving scary movies. Then came "The Creature From The Black Lagoon", haha. They made the re-make of this movie (The Thing) with Curt Russell and it was very well made, and the special effects were freaky. Fun discussion, Thanks. [Kashmeresmycat]
UFOs and aliens always creeped me out as a kid too! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
Yes! Freddy kruger!!! waaaaaaaaa. It was crazy. I was seven and scared of the world as it was, without that. Seeing someone lying on a bed listening to music get 'swallowed' in the bed and seeing someone on the toilet get testi tickled :) - really scared me, because these are things we do in life and as a kid - imagination can sometimes run wild Honestly going toilet became like a nightmare lol and going bed was with one eye open. That night we saw it, yes I wet the bed. It scared the **** out of me and to this day, I wouldn't watch it. I have watched horror films but that one I just didn't like. It was on video we saw it, a friends - nothing much really bothered me. I saw the blob as that was quite scarey at the time but I saw it last year and I quite enjoyed it. Sure I winced during the kitchen scene but as a film it was pretty good. Goodluck [Jakker27]
I have actually never seen Nightmare on Elm Street but I think everyone knows who creepy Freddy Krueger is!! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
This wasn't a movie, but I can remember the first thing on TV that really scared me when I was younger was a show called Unsolved Mysteries. I think it was a combination of the theme music, the host's voice and the fact that these were true stories that remained unsolved. I think unsolved crimes and things of the like scare me more than "scary movies" do. [TopDiscountsOnline]
OMG. I can't remember what it was called but I saw this movie once about a woman who thought she was seeing ghosts. The whole movie she kept seeing gruesome murders in her house - a whole family of people being mercilessly slaughtered. The whole movie she tries to find out what happened in the house, and finally by the end she goes insane and her family moves away. The movie ends with the new homebuyers moving into the house, and it turns out they are the people from the woman's dreams. And of course at the very end, you see the murderer from the woman's visions walking up the path to the house... It was REALLY scary!!! [hisbabydoll]
The movie that scared me the most was JAWS. Even though I knew this was a movie abou sharks when Jaws made his first hit it happened so suddenly and fast that I actually jumped out of my seat. I know this would be exactly how it would have been in real life. I will never forget that experience. I do not believe any othr movie has given me that feeling. [eeyore39]
I saw that when it first came out while I was at my COTTAGE. No matter how much my parents tried to convince us Sharks didn't live in fresh water - we never were ENTIRELY convinced. LOL. [hisbabydoll]
Hi rocketj1! Oh I do remember the first movie that really scared me but I don't remember how old I was that time. I think I was less than 10 years old that time. The whole family were watching "The Exorcist" starring Lind Blair, and that was a very long time ago. I remember that my brothers and I were all hiding behind our Mama's back and she was laughing the whole time. She does not want us to watch but we wanted to and we were just peeking at the tv the whole time. haha..My father teased us the whole time and scaring us. haha..I was not able to sleep in my own bed for a few nights and will not let the lights be turned off. haha.. Take care and have a nice day! lovelots..faith210 [faith210]
Hi hisbabydoll! Usually that happens but I don't wish to watch the Exorcist again. haha..I fear Linda Blair! I have watched Salem's Lot when I was young and that scared me a lot too but when I watched it again after so many years, I end up watching it in full with my eyes widely open and finding the scary characters funny. haha..But with The Exorcist, it is different for me. I guess, I wanted to stay scared! haha.. Take care and have a nice day! lovelots..faith210 [faith210]
Only once was I ever shook up by a movie but it had me rocking from one side of my butt to the other. It's a lot of years ago now and I don't remember the name of the movie. The bad guy was Tellie Savalce (Sorry for spelling here I'm sure it's wrong) but he was in love I guess? with this really nice lady and he became hopelessly in love with her to the point where he stalked her and he was out to get her. She got away from him because he was so abusive and she knew he'd kill her so she took off. He went everywhere she was even to her work place and tried killing her there and that failed. She was scared to be home alone so she rented an appartment where they had an intercom to gain entry. After much trying he finally did manage to get inside her appartment. It was then I was so scared for her safety I shut TV off and went to bed, Well then I couldn't sleep because I was scared half to death and I lay in bed stiff as a board. I was young then real young and I was having some trouble with my boyfriend at that time, nothing like the movie of course but I bet I got up three times at least to make sure my door was locked. I lived alone then and I still remember how that show upset me. Now I'd like to see it but no idea of the name of the movie. [Grandmaof2]
Oh, that's a bad kind of movie to be watching when you're living alone!! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
I was like 4 years old or younger (my memories go way back) My older brother was watching the movie about Lizzy Borden....I snuck in and hid under his bed by a wall and was scared to death. Later grandma came in yelling at him for watching it and up late too...then she found me and yelled at him for letting me...he had no clue I was there....I was so scared to go to bed I kept grandma up most the night. I know as a kid that little diddy...."Lizzy bordan took an ax and gave hermother 40 wacks and when the job was nicely done she gave her father 41".....had a very scary meaning to me! [megsgem]
Oh, I remember that too now! [rocketj1]
I remembered being terrified while watching The Wizard of Oz. I covered my eyes every time the wicked witch showed up. It was scary for a 5 year old. Ah, the innocence of youth. Now my kids have watched some really scary things and nothing seems to phase them. We recently watched all 3 of the Jurassic Park movies, the first 2 were seen with all the little kids. That movie would have been enough to scare me when I was 5 years old, but the twins really liked it. [katsmeow1213]
Forget the witch - those flying monkey's were FREAKY!!! [hisbabydoll]
The first movie I can remember watching as a child that scared me is "THE WIZARD OF OZ". That wicked witch just scared the bejeebers out of me the first time I watched it. Also the monkies that carry Dorothy,the scarecrow,tinman, and the lion away scared me to. After I was a little older and realized what was happening and that it wasn't for real,I was okay with it. This continues to be one of my favorite movies and my grandchildren enjoy watching it too. [OLIJULSAR]
They sure were. the funny thing is they really didn't look to much like monkeys. There was not much body just all arms and legs *LOL*. [OLIJULSAR]
I was about 6 yrs old when my sister (7 yrs older) and I went to see a matinee of House of Usher. It was a low budget film based on Edgar Allen Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher. I have seen it since and can't imagine why I was scared. It is soooooo cheesy. [juvinurse]
Hey, you know your stuff, hisbabydoll! [rocketj1]
i love police shows & watch a bunch of them. the first movie that came to mind was "the birds" it's an old movie but it was scary. [ANTIQUELADY]
hitchcock was something else. [ANTIQUELADY]
I have watched hundred of scary movies and the only one that really freaked me out was "The Shining" with spooky Jack Nicholson and I was an adult. I think I'll watch a re-run of it and see if it still scares me!!lol My grandmother told me that she took me to see "The Wizard of OZ" when I was about 5 years old and the witch scared me to death. I had nightmares and would not go to the movies again for a long time!! [whiteheather39]
Heeeerrrrrrre's......Johnny! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
I can't remember the first movie that scared me...it might have been Wizard of Oz. The first television show that scared me was an episode of Alfred Hitchcock. It was a story where a prison inmate was intending to escape from prison by being buried alive, and some one was supposed to dig him up after the internment, but never showed up. I may have been 7 or 8 at the time. We were staying at my grandparents house and the room that my brother an I shared had a tv in it. Needless to say we stayed up pretty late watching television while the grownups played cards...lol. [catdla1]
The Wizard of Oz has been pretty popular here! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
If I remember correctly I was only about 12. It was a Stephen King movie but I am unsure of which one it was ( I think that it was children of the corn). My dad was a big fan and would watch them. I think that it is because Stephen King will play with your mind. And being so young I did not understand it. [lisa0502]
Oh, that one was creepy all right! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
I can't remember how old I was but I saw poltergeist. I must have been fairly young, my dad seemed to think it was ok. It scared the living cr*p out of me!! Even now the poltergeist films scare me and I love horror films lol! [mummyofthree]
Now that you mention it.......... [rocketj1]
When I was a child, and I don't remember the exact age, I would try to watch the wizard of oz. It came on once each year and each year I would beg for the chance to watch it. When it came on I would sit enthralled as the show started but it wouldn't be long before I ran screaming from the room in fright. The next day I would be so disappointed because I hadn't seen it but I just could not get all the way through it. I don't think I watched it all the way through until my own children wanted to see it. They, by the way, were not as big a wuss as I had been. [savak03]
My father refused to have tlevision until we had passed what are the equivalent of your High School. We were allowed to go to the movies though and in the company of an older cousin we got in to Adult movies. Children had to be qaccompanied by an adult. The name escapes me momentarily but it was about a man who killed deformed young women. It was awful - I believe it was a an Alfred Hitchcock movie and we ran home so scared with our cousin frightening us. You naughty girl! I am now quite scared. [cynthiann]
lollolAh...... sisterly love!wub [rocketj1]
I think the first time I ever saw anything in a media outlet that scared me, was a show on television. Maybe you remember it? It starred Fred Dryer and was called Hunter. I think it aired on FOX. Anyway, one episode the killer jumped out from behind the shower curtain and killed someone. It scared me to death. I was not supposed to watch it because I was just six. Still to this day, I look behind shower curtains before I do anything else in the bathroom. [AmbiePam]
Yes, that is the real type of horror that gets to me! It's something that could really happen in life unlike monsters and stuff. Thanks:) [rocketj1]
The scariest movie I saw was probly the chucky movies. About a doll thats alive, thats really scary if a doll were to suddenly move around and kill everyone. I'm also scared of clowns, even though they are fun they just creep me out. I didnt want any dolls in the house after I saw chucky. I was like 11 at the time, now I watch it and it still scares me, but by a little. [gamingworld]
Oh yeah, that movie was really unfair turning a toy into something to fear!! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
My first memory of being scared because of a movie or TV program was "Twilight Zone". I was about 12 or 13 and my folk left me home alone. "Twilight Zone" was the top scary TV shows in it's day. If I remember right the story line was about ants with human faces. I don't remember much else about the program. but that night the wind was blowing and some branches were rubbing against the window and when i looked at the window i saw a face in the screen. I was very scared. What I actually saw was the way the screen had been shaped because of dirt or something that was in the form of a face. I felt like the ants were coming after me. I still remember how scared I was. [deebomb]
Yes, the mystery of that show made it really creepy! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
I don't like Horror Movies I never have. I like Love Stories Suspense, Detective Stories. I also like Comedy, I really like Comedy Movies. I can't remember how old I was but when I got to be an Adult, I stop watching them. [marciascott]
Cop stories and Mysteries were scary enough for me as a child! I agree! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
sadHmmm they were a lot of local movies that scared during my youth and i doubt you would remember because it was not from the box office.well, as for the unforgettable scary movie, the Japanese horror movies has really caught my attention. first, The Ring Trilogy, then Eye, lastly the Grudge(japanese). although i must say the American Version was good, the Jap version was better and took me days before i could get some nice sleep. in the Grudge Trilogy there has been no sort of good ending there! you don't know. check this link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0tN4qExeVY [Greeneagle24]
Thanks, Greeneagle:) I haven't seen any of those but I've heard a lot about them. [rocketj1]
Wow! I remember Hawaii five O. It never scared me but when I was 11 my Aunt and mom took me to go see" the Exorcist" and then when" The Omen" came out they took me to see that too! Now they scared me!!!ninja The Ninja guy is me trying to hide my eyes.lol [goofygrmp]
My parents brought us to the theatre to watch Jaws when I was around 6. I was petrified for several days after that, and my over-active imagination made me think a shark could come out of the toilet when I relieved myself. LOL A friend later in my teens thought the film wasn't at all credible given the "stiff" shark; well, it looked real to a 6-year old. [1corner]
That movie made an impact on a lot of people! It probably had more to do with the acting and the suspenseful music than with the shark effects. Thanks:) [rocketj1]
Does Fraggles count? lol. I was very young and me and my siblings were all scared of the Mr. McMooch character on Fraggles. After that, I was terrified by Jurassic Park when it came out, then 7 scared me pretty good. After that I found some X-files episodes to be disturbing and creepy but I haven't been scared by TV in a long time. [Aurone]
My son found the fraggles to be creepy when he was little too. Thanks:) [rocketj1]
Well, i can't seemed to remember it. But i remember these times when we are listening to this radio programs which tells about scary moment and it makes me have goosebumps just by hearing it. [marky15]
We don't have radio shows like that anymore around here. That would be very fun! Thanks:) [rocketj1]
the first time that i got scared from a movie was when i was about 5-6 when I saw the texas chainsaw masacre. it was the original. i dont know who put it on the tv. i dont really remember being scared after that. i dont get scared easily. i tend to stay away from horror films because now a days they just suck. theres no more originality. I saw someting that could have been way cooler if it was thought out more. The movies that scare me the most now still dont scare me their the suspense movies. nothing ever happens but they make you think something is going to. scary movies are more like comedies now to me. [kttribal]
I like to watch for blood and gore too, when I watch a movie. I just don't like how they sometimes try too hard and mess it all up. suspense keeps you at the edge of your seat. thats why i like that so much. Ill watch the other stuff if i feel like watching people die. Most of the time though, I like to watch black and white movies because they do a better job at making the gore look real. It leaves a lot up to the imagination. I love Alfred Hitchcock. Suspense horror with blood. great stuff. Psyco is one of the best movies he's ever made.(In my opinion) [kttribal]
Lol, I remembver I was about 5 years old, and there was a disney film which was meant to be sort of depressing and slightly 'evil'. I think it had Micky Mouse in it, and he was some sort of wizard lol. It was a surprisingly dark film, and it gave me a fee troubled nights afterwards, I can assure you! [tristanbacon]
Sounds like "Fantasia". Could that be it? Thanks:) [rocketj1]
OHHH! When I was 12, I watched the Japanese version of "The Ring" and "The Grudge" and it took me weeks or maybe months before I could even sleep with the lights off. Also, I remember the scene where a girl was taking a shower and then when she was about to touch her haid, there was a hand on her head! I was so scared that I took very quick showers for months maybe about 5 minutes or less. But that was before, now, I'm not that scared with those scary movies. [byakurai]
I have not seen those but others have mentioned them here too. Thanks:) [rocketj1]
Poltergeist - when the stupid clown doll attacks the boy in the bed. My brother had one just like it, and I'm afraid it had to go live in a box - in the basement - under a brick... [hisbabydoll]
Sorry, I was 11 or 12. Actually, now that I think about it, I wasn't very fond of the headless horseman in Disney's Sleepy Hollow when I was 8. It's funny actually because my mother and I used to watch all sorts of horror movies, and I used to sneak onto the staircase to watch the tv when my parents thought I was in bed. Most of the horror movies didn't scare me... but the stupid headless horseman, I was sure he was coming out of my closet to get me if I didn't block my door with a chair. Scarier than movies were stupid campfire stories at brownies and girl guides. There was one about the dog under the bed licking your hand, but when you go to the bathroom you find your dog dead in the shower, and really it was a psycho-killer licking your hand under your bed... Made me look under my bed for YEARS. Also some story about the bloody collar where some girl somehow loses her head at a slumber party, or the woman who tells her husband never to take the ribbon off her neck and one day he does and her head rolls off!! - Those stories are freaky scary when you are 7-8!!! Especially in the woods in a cabin in the middle of the night!!! [hisbabydoll]
I don't remember the name of movie, but I remember that I was a young kid and became so afraid during watching the movie, I could not go into dark and became afraid of putting my feet down the chair during watching the movie. [suruchi86]
I have another one - Arachnophobia. When the spiders started to pour out of the drain in the shower I pulled my feet up onto the theatre seat and started screaming. I mean, COME ON! I'm not usually afriad of spiders, but that was too much!! [hisbabydoll]
Alien. I was 18 and had never been to a movie theater. So it was my first. I saw the title, and thought UFOs. So I thought it was gonna be a sci-fi type. I walked to the theater, about 5 blocks, and it started at 9 pm. It was not what I was expecting!! I also have a fear of spiders. If you've seen it, did you notice the face clinging things were spider-like? Then there was the thing coming out of the stomach. I was a good girl, mostly cause I was terrified of getting pregnant. This didn't help! Then the thing over your face, suffocating you. I got out of that place at 11 pm. Late at night, very easy to see though. There weren't lights along the block, but the stars were out. A lot of stars. So many it was like daytime, it was so bright. And a lot of planes flying overhead. I ran all the way home. I'm not very athletic, but I didn't even take a breather! I still don't like those Alien movies. [snowcat46]
totally lost in this topic cuz i don't remember the moment when i was first scared by a movie. i guess it's when i was a teenage. i was with my cousin watching horrible movies later they were downstairs,however i didn't wanna downstairs so i stayed. this is not scary cuz it's daytime. and it was bright that day. i was not scared that time. however when the scary moment came and i just watched it, alone. well, that scene scared me and i went into the bed for being frightened. i just shut off the tv then went downstairs,pretending that i was absolutely normal. well, this is the time a movie really scared me cuz i was alone when watching it.mostly i won't get frightened when being with someone else. and i am not sure if it's the first time a movie scared me. this is just the impressed time for me. and later i have been strong and old enough to avoid being scared again. [kuer86]
I am in my 50's. Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" scared me so much that I still have a phobia about birds. When flocks of birds all roost at night in a certain location, it freaks me out. My friend had a beautiful African Gray and I wouldn't even get around this very tame bird. [jarnold51]
The movie that I remember having scared the mess out of me was The Exorcist...The bed shaking, the head turning, the voice, the whole idea that something could take over one's body, all left me shaking like a leaf...for ten days my bed shook at night when I tried to sleep...I thought something was going to possess me. It didn't help that I had a Russian friend who at the time, told me that she slept in the attic of their very old house and her bed often shook at night. Fast forward to adulthood and I finally realized (or reasoned) that my bed was most likely shaking because I was so petrified that my body was shaking and my heart was pounding from fear....I think.... [penny78]
I can't actually a remember a movie ever scaring me. I don't watch very many horror movies, but when I do they don't tend to scare me. I Am Legend made me cry though... Interesting that a horror movie has made me cry, lol. Then again it was sentimental movie also. [vinyl123]
I was five or six and the movie was 'Child's Play' - the awful one with the red headed demon doll. My parents were pretty liberal about letting me watch what I wanted but I wish they had been a little more parental and banned me from seeing it. As completely dumb as that movie is it STILL scares the crap out of me! That movie is what developed a life long fear of dolls for me. [jesssp]
Yes I was about 25 years old and I went to the movies with my brother. We saw the film "The Exorcist". This was the most frightening mmovie I have ever seen ... even to this date. I was so scared throughout the whole that I kept digging my fingernails into my brother's arm. I would never, ever see this movie again. OMG!! it was just too upsetting. We went with a friend of my brothers and on the way home he kept laughing hysterically about the movie. It was so annying ... I couldn't figure it out. [barbiedollgirl]
The first movie I recall scaring me, is what I believe was one of those elvira, mistress of the night movies, it was just a quick flash, I think I was 5, showed a REAL scary puppet, had a shrill freaky scream, I ducked behind the couch and then left the room to tell my mom what my older sister was watching. Now, the first FULL movie that scared me and gave me nightmares was "Ernest Scared Stupid", that darn troll just frightened me to death, turning us kids into wooden dolls, being able to imitate anybody's voice, scary! I was 8 then. [candymarie]
The first movie to scare me was bambi, I couldn't get it out of my mind. I was maybe 7 at the time. It was a long time before I saw another one, my parents didn't want to cope with bad dreams. [savypat]
I have heard of soooo many people who were traumatized by that movie! Thanks for your response:) [rocketj1]
When I was young, I decided to see what was on television. That was the old black and white one and it must have been on a Friday night, I do not know how old whether I was a teenager or a pre teen. The show was Frankenstein and when the monster started to appear, I got very scared and jumped into the bed and pulled the covers over me. I was an innocent then. He was very frightening and then we switched schools and I saw those Hammer films at lunch time and then I really knew what was frightening -Dracula with his fangs and all that blood@ [suspenseful]
Yes the original Halloween movie scared me to death. I dont remember how old I was but I was pretty young, maybe 8. We went to a movie theatre and saw it.I had nightmares for a week! w00t I don't like scary movies to this day because of that thing!surrender [fasttalker]
I remember seeing the nightmare on elm st. we watched it over a beta tape. I was in grade school then when I watched it. The first time I watched it scared the hell out of me. I sometimes dreamed about it. I was really scared to go to sleep that night I watched it but then I still fell asleep lol. [yuna15]
NO! LOL I am on a quest to find a movie that will actually make me lock all the doors and sleep with the lights on. The problem is that I don't get any enjoyment out of "slasher" movies which are really the only reason to "lock the doors" because ghosts and other scary things like that are going to get in anyway and ghosts and other scary things don't bother me. I actually find movies about ghosts and vampires and other similar things fun and a real *ahem* live ghost hunt is something I've always wanted to do but could never get anyone convinced to do with me (and who wants to go on a ghost hunt by themselves.... then there's no one around to believe you when you really do see something lol). [crimsonladybug]
It wasn't a movie that first scared me but a local TV show. I don't really remember the story. The only thing I remembered was a scene where there was a figure of Jesus and he was crying with blood. I don't know why but that really disturbed me and I found it really difficult to sleep that night. That made me include in my prayers every time I go to sleep for God not to include scary stuff in my dreams. LOL [caitlindawn]
Well I wasn't that young when a movie scared me, I can't remember what the name of it was, but it was about this man that killed someone and they had him on death row, I don't know why I was watching it, I just was. At the end of the movie they showed them executing him, they electrocuted him, I just thought that was such a scarey scene, and it was sad too, I covered my eyes when they showed it, but I'll never forget how it made me feel, it spooked me for some reason, and I never watched it again. I can still remember how it made me feel, its weird, and I think I was probably 18 to 20 yrs. old when I watched it. I just can't remember what the name of the movie was. [walijo2008]
I was about five or six years old when the movie Jaws came out. I just looked at the book in a store and had nightmares so when it came on TV when I was a couple of years older, my mother wouldn't let me watch it. I kept dreaming that a shark was biting me in half and I would go crawl in the bed with my parents because it scared me so bad. When I was fifteen and watched A Nightmare on Elm Street down at a neighbors house with my boyfriend, when we went to leave, his car would not crank and I was freaking out, looking in the backseat, making sure Freddy wasn't anywhere around. Now that I am grown, they don't bother me, but I very rarely watch movies like that anymore. God Bless! [change1life]
I do. Raiders of the Lost Ark. That sounds funny. But when it came out we went to see it at the drive in. I fell asleep and I woke up just when the Nazis were standing around the Ark at it disintegrated them. That was kinda freaky to wake up to when you are around 10 years old. [Ruthep]
I'm pretty sure it was Poltergeist. I was about 7 years old at the time. For the longest time big spooky looking trees scared me and don't even get me started with that darn clown! That thing was freaky! He scared me most of all! No wonder I hate clowns! LOL Yeah, that was a scary movie alright! Who knew it was rated PG? [sacmom]
wublolhappy yes, freddy cougar when I was forty lol ok laugh if you want too but I still dont care for that guy lol he creeps me out lol [eaforeman6]
I have a brother that is 4 years older than me and so I sometimes got to sneak and watch the movies he got to watch. The worse one I watched was when I was around 10 and it was one of the Freddy movies...the one where the guy gets pulled into the bed and blood comes spraying up out of it. I had nightmares about that for weeks afterwards...not to mention I wouldn't sleep in my bed for several days...I slept on the floor instead. ~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS** [twoey68]
When I was 5 years old my father and I went to the movie theater to watch a movie called "The Olsen gang" It is about a group of criminals who breaks into a place trying to steal some money. One of them (Egon) tries to hide in a cold storage room. One of the workers from the place thinks that the room is empty so he locks it from the outside. Egon is trapped inside the room. After a while his friends arrive and they manage to get him out of the room, but he is completely frozen and he can't move, so they have to carry him out of there. That scene really scared me and I had nightmares about it afterwards. [Porcospino]
I was already old and went alone to watch a movie on my own. The movie was a horror film but I did not expect myself to get too scared. Usually when I am watching a movie with my friends we just laugh at it. I watch a horror movie alone and it got too scary on the first scenes that I went out of the movie house and went home. It was one of those times I wish I went with my friends. [hibiscus_mel]
Yes, first time I was scared, while I was watching a movie in a theater. I was about 10 years old at that time. But the experience was so horrific that I started to hate the horror movies and this is so even now also. [suruchi86]
I was about 8 or 9 the first time a movie scared me. I am not sure what the mocie was but I DO REMEMBER I waS SCARED [Shaun72]
I don't know exactly how old I was. I had not started kindergarten yet. I was spending the night at my cousin's house. They were all older than me by at least ten years and they were watching Salem's Lot by Stephen King. It scared the begeebers out of me! I recently watched it again a few months ago and it is amazing how scared I was of it then. Now it seems silly. I did have bad dreams and was scared to be in my bed alone. I know my mama and daddy had a fit about it! [Shellyann36]
