The only thing I was irrationally/instinctively afraid of was walking past a dark room. I was afraid something would reach out and grab me and suck me into the darkness. I know some people who said they would actually run past the room real fast and try to flip on the light without slowing down. I never tried that, but I always looked directly into the darkness and walked past real slowly, as if I were hoping to see something. Maybe even daring it to come at me. I was a strange 4 year old

I remember seeing the Blob (the original one) and being afraid for the next week or two that every time I sat down on the couch or in a chair the Blob would come out from underneath it and absorb my legs if I let them dangle over the edge. I still sometimes cross my legs when I sit in chairs, not because it's comfortable but because I feel like I have to in order to feel secure. I get anxious otherwise
