Sometimes I still feel this way, if I'm in a strange place alone. At my friend's house I sleep with a lamp on.

S'all I've got to say, tbh.

Yeah, it sucked, it was based on an odd book so failure was a given. I don't think they've even made the other books in the series as movies.



I used to hate being alone in the dark because of all the stupid ghost stuff my brother watched (okay I think he watched it for the boy but still).....Ha, but I remember that brother would sit on the steps at night waiting for someone to go upstairs with him.


But I usually watched t.v, sometimes played video games (I hated not having my back to a wall so only rarely would this occur since the systems were in a diff room), that way there'd be some sound when no one else was there....


Also, going upstairs alone, not touching the toybox and hearing things fall anyways was sort of creepy too.:|

I'm perfectly fine with the dark, even as a child I was never scared of it, I was strange like that.

Sometimes a thought enters my mind "what if someone/thing's watching me?" Then I remember I just don't care either way. What's the worst they can do? If it's supernatural, my fear isn't going to help me. If it's human, I can them off if I'm awake or, if I'm asleep, then what they do doesn't matter. I spend a lot of time dwelling on the future always seeing that past experience rings truer than any advice people give me ("be positive, it helps"... yeah right, go f yourself), I don't need to waste my nights dwelling on what could be in my closet.

I was mostly awake at night when I was growing up anyway, and I got used to the dark. I feel more comfortable in the dark than I do in the light. I guess that's just something that happens when you have to make a living stealing things to survive :|
