Things You Were Terrified Of As a Kid

[Fujiko]

Mirrors in the dark, the dark, closed shower curtains, being home alone without the TV on, black cats, and some black monster thing with a red cape that I'm pretty sure I saw in Conan the barbarian (1982); I thought that monster were in dark corners when I was trying to sleep, or behind shower curtains in the bathroom and it scared the living daylights out of me. I couldn't tell my parents about it 'cause I wasn't supposed to see that movie as I was way too young. >_> I think that's about it.

Edit: oh and, when I was taking showers and the water was cold and I had to close my eyes to rinse my hair, I'd always think a great white shark was going to appear infront of me and I was always in a hurry to open my eyes as quickly as I could. This only happened when the water was cold and I had to close my eyes. Frightening and embarrassing...

Also, The Joker from Batman. He was scary.

I used to love The Joker when I was a kid!

Edit 2: I googled for that monster, and apparently it was Conan the Destroyer (1984) and not Conan the Barbarian (1982). The creature's name is man ape, and this is what he looks like:
