Those big eyed, dark eyed gray type of aliens commonly seen on shows like Sightings, Unsolved Mysteries, and whatever else. Those fuckers always gave me the creeps, especially when they're sticking their damn probes up somebody's pooper
Then there was the intro for that old show Tales from the Darkside. I found it interesting that nothing in the show was as scary as the intro except that episode when the little girl's teddy bear came to life and ate the family.
Oh yeah, there was those "last known photos" of missing/presumed dead people on Unsolved Mysteries. Somehow, those last known photos usually looked quite disturbing, I dunno why... maybe they had a death aura around them that gave me the heebie jeebies if you believe in that sort of thing.
I also didn't like to see people in dark rooms with their faces blurred out to conceal identity...something about that was also "nightmare fuel". (*it was even worse if they added voice distortion. Great, now you've made it look like a DEMON of darkness with no face is sitting right there in the chair in some interview....yeah, that's nice for a 10 year old in the 80s to see.)
Nothing else I've seen on tv compares to those things.

I HATE any scene in a TV show or in a movie where somebody's buried alive.
ReplyDeleteClowns are evil too. Even the "happy" ones. They're even MORE evil!
Once again clowns get no love whatsoever! I never understood that I have always been creeped out by those victorian dudes that wear that powdery make up and white wigs.
ReplyDeleteThe look like tranny corpses dancing around and talkin in that dumb british accent!

I have Mottephobia, a fear of moths.
ReplyDeleteIt got so bad that looking a picture of one would give me a panic attack.
I saw a therapist about it and I'm a lot better.
I don't have a problem with clowns though. :)
