What scared you most as a kid?

[HateSolstice]

I don't recall what scared me the most when I was much younger, but I know that when I was closer to 12-13 years old the movie Alien made me an insomniac. I think I still suffer to this day, because I can't sleep at all.

Then there was Poultergeist and Exorcist.

Also, the books Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Not necessarily the stories themselves, but the original artwork of the books. Those drawings were god damn creepy.
