What would terrify you?

I will not say, because I am concerned (not scared) about people who want to know what terrifies me. Why do you want to know? What is this information going to be used for? :klingon:

;)
 
Yes I meant Communion. I absolutely hated seeing huge displays of that thing in windows. That explanation is a good one Kommander, a baby getting a huge fright by a face that is not mommy and maybe is giving it an injection or.. probing it! In some way.
This, combined with the effects that piezoelectric discharges can have on the brain is what is most widely accepted as an explanation for why people report abductions, aside from mental illness. Night terrors are involved too.
 
Waking up in the middle of the night to see a stranger standing over my bed.

Also, although I am afraid of many things and would be very scared if I was near a tornado or a fire, the one thing that has always frightened me most, that gives me that sickening, unnatural, absolutely horrified feeling, would be exposure to nuclear radiation. My worst nightmares usually include that occurring. The click click sound of that meter that measures radiation is truly horrifying.
 
For me it would be a pair of glowing red eyes staring at me out from the darkness and not seeing who or what they belong to.

You mean this:

The Amityville Horror's Jodie?

For me it's a dream I've had since I was a little kid. Abandonment. Being utterly and completely alone, where no one can be found, seen, or heard.
 
I am terrified of being burned alive.

This is my worst fear, too, but I don't know where it comes from. Fortunately I've never been in a fire or known anyone personally who has been injured in a fire (though I know people who've lost everything in house fires). I blame it on my overactive imagination.
 
^Aaaaaaahhhhhh! :eek: If I saw that in a shower it would be one of the few times I wished I owned a handgun.

:lol: we do joke about that sometimes when we see them in the house.. at least this one was discovered before anyone got in the shower. What really sucks is being naked in the shower and seeing one on the shower wall which has happened a couple times.
 
Nothing is scarier to me than the idea of having a teenage daughter.

:lol: Ach, they're not that bad. If they have a mobile phone and a laptop they only leave their rooms to trudge into the kitchen and yell "There's nothing to eat!" while £150 worth of food goes bad as they stand in front of the fridge with the door open for 10 minutes.

This doesn't really answer the question, but since we're talking about arachnids, I remember well a holiday I took to a place called Hayling Island (off the south coast of England). I was about four at the time, and I was very disturbed to find that the harvestmen spiders there were red. Red, and very large too. And they got on the ceiling and in the bath, etc. To little me there was something seriously feaky about them, and I couldn't tolerate having one in the room. It was odd, because I could handle arachnids, and I could handle things that were red, but something about the combination just utterly freaked me out. Why were they red? Why? These creatures simply should not be. It was like having cthulhu himself clinging to the ceiling...
 

Yeah, those little grey fellas also terrify me -it's a good thing they only operate in North America - Our aliens are tall, blond, blue-eyed things -in fact they look a lot like Swedes :eek:
Here's one I had in my shower some time back:


Never seen anything like that here, but isn't that one of the good spiders; the ones that catch and eat other spiders?

I never know which is funnier, to be honest. :lol:

"Our aliens are short, freaky, bulging-eyed aborted-foetus-look-alikes"

"Our aliens are like Swedish people"

I mean, who is wearing the biggest "okay, you people are nuts" expression here? :lol:

Well, my bad, it's just that the 'Pleiadeans' are also called 'Nordic aliens' because of their features.

Not a "bad" at all. :) I'm quite aware that "Nordics" is a popular name for that branch of alien, and with reason. I was just engaging in a bit of humour. The two alien types must look equally "messed up" from the other side's perspective, for different reasons.
 
^Of course: it's all in good fun :bolian:





And, after all, at the end of the day, when everything's said and done, those Swedes aren't quite 'human' you know... no actual human population could be that scared of alcoholic beverages!
