The drive-through carwash. It was pitch black in there and it was like the car was being swallowed by a Lovecraftian monster with tentacles. I would cower in the footwell and cry until I saw daylight. The one I go to now actually is made of windows.

I've seen this comment several times over my rewatches and I finally have something to add!! While camping at the beach in Surf City, NC my dad got caught in quicksand at like 3 in the morning while surf fishing. He said the only thing he was worried about was his cart tipping and his rods getting sand on them! He fought for thirty minutes to get out. I told him he was lucky the tide was going out and not coming in! I was sleeping like a baby in my tent. XD

[@tunnelsnakesrule7541]

I don't think i was ever too scared of being caught in quicksand. Maybe because i thought it was only in jungles.

[@CherokeeRoses]

"YOU GET NOTHING! YOU LOOOSE!" Haha well to be fair, he was an angry adult who seemed to have lost his mind a little yelling at the little main character.

When I was 5 or 6 (late 2000s) my mom thought it'd be hilarious to show me Micheal Jackson's Thriller. It absolutely traumatized me and I could not sleep for months and would think about it for years, picturing the werewolf under my bed. It became a running gag in my family as they would play the music or just any part of it and I would literally have PTSD 'Nam flashbacks and just be utterly mortified. There was just so much malice and apathy in my mom's eyes, and every Halloween season I was just spooked beyond comparison.

When I was nine I was absolutely horrified by Chucky, and at the time I hadn’t actually watched the movie. The reason I’d been so scared of Chucky was because at my YMCA camp one of the kids brought a little booklet that came with the movie disc he had. In the little booklet were scenes from the film (for example Chucky going after Mike down the stairs wielding a knife) and just the idea of a doll of toy coming to life to attack you like that freaked me out, especially since I owned so many stuffed animals and dolls.

We were so surprised when one summer day Mom suggested a marathon of all of them, as we were all old enough in her and Dad’s opinion. Except she didn’t tell us why we’d never seen it before, so that scene for us came out of nowhere, but with the buildup we knew something was coming and were so ready to jump and scream when that heart sequence came on 😂 Mom had to pause the movie for a bathroom and snack break 😂 That whole series holds a special place in our hearts, and it’s a fun memory to bring up when we’re all together 🥰 Scooby-Doo: Zombie Island fucked us up proper though, I was 6 and my brothers were 5 and 3 and our babysitter made a terrible mistake 😂

It took me until my early 20s to figure out what the movie even was. Your hatred of The Dark Crystal admittedly makes me really sad, but I still love you guys xD And honestly, I loved that movie as a kid, but the thing that brought it back for me as an adult was the Netflix show.

Since you guys mentioned Tim Curry, I think of the original movie poster for ""Legend" where he plays the demon lord Darkness. Bearing a possible resemblance to the Devil. The makeup was obviously modeled for his characteristic facial features.

I swear the Wallace and Gromit penguin is the embodiment of pure malice

[@itsadam2543]

Calum McClelland he is like a claymation John wick

Some of my childhood scares (I was a bit too young for some of these): - The Mummy -> the scarabs AND the blonde American getting sucked dry (you see this happen on the wall) - Return to Oz -> Wheelers and the talking heads - Felidae -> the 2nd nightmare (who's idea whas this?????) - Watership Down - the dog scene (you made me fear a dog, hope yer happy movie) AND Blackavar's death - Scooby Doo on Zombie Island -> Morgan Moonscar and the cat lady transformations/deaths - Final Destination 3 -> the rollercoaster crash (hellloooooo phobia for the next years!) - The Thing -> the dog scene (I love dogs so....yeah) - Animal Farm (animated version) -> the cat getting mauled onscreen (did. not. need. to. see. that.) - Indiana Jones last crusade -> Donovan drinking from the wrong grail (you made me scared of drinking water from a cup movie, congrats!) - Indiana Jones temple of doom -> KALI MAAAAAHHHHHHHHH (seriously how did that dude hold on that long without a heart????) - Bambi -> Little april shower/aftermatch (this sounds like an odd one but I'm talking about that freaking storm that starts right after the cute animal rain scene. this thunder storm scared the shit out of me. the sounds, the shadows, that lightning, just everything) - Arachnophobia -> EVERY SINGLE SCENE WITH A SPIDER

[@inzaniavendetta8661]

A lot of these are horror movies though

[@root-beer]

arachnophobia also scared me

[@a.a.g.h.1679]

Man watership down. I’ve only read the book and I’m terrified of watching the movie

[@vinrock123]

What about that scene in the temple of doom when they eat the monkeys brain?

[@itsevepotato]

I remember my sister being terrified of Swiper the fox where every time we heard that sound before he shows, she would scream. also, since I watch wrestling a lot, there was a lot to be scared of; weirdly I wasn't scared of Undertaker or Kane at all, but rather I was deathly terrified of The Boogeyman O.O anyone remember him????

[@canijust101]

Eve Feist guess he lived up to his name for you lmao

[@qavix6089]

Oh man the boogeyman. Dude eat worms and all that, i was more digusted than scared honestly and stills disgusts me today

[@kaylinwu7645]

The "You're Not Perfect" scene from Courage the Cowardly Dog. A lot of people always talk about the "Return the Slab" scene or Freaky Fred, but that blue abomination with the realistic face whispering "you're not perfect" never failed to make me run screaming and crying to my parents. I was not allowed to watch the show until much older because i would not go to sleep for fear of seeing that thing in my dreams. I don't know who the hell would approve that scene for a children's show.

[@ConLustig]

Oogie boogie’s bugs freaked me out. Even though I liked bugs just fine as a kid I still occasionally have nightmares of having bugs/worms inside me

[@YankeeCountess]

I was born in 1980, and I can assure you, a fear of quicksand is a universal childhood fear

[@stuartmonteith4173]

The one thing I remember getting me as a child was a Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode that the family had on the tv. It was the episode where the monster can only be seen by kids and the adults don’t believe them. Really creepy, I was turning all the lights on to go up the stairs 😂

[@christiaanburke5432]

When I was a kid Chupacabra: Dark Seas ruined me for like a year when it’s just gooning through the hallways. Same with Beetle Juice, the effects were just crazy as hell.

[@bobby-jeans]

i have to say it because i can't find ANYONE else, but i watched Brothers Grimm when it first came out, and that scene where the horse swallows a child whole...i will literally never forget that

[@nobby5450]

Fun fact: The teletubies costumes were actually 8ft tall! You can google set photos and the director is stood next to them and they TOWER over him. Actually terrifying. Also quite surprised that ‘AAHHH REAL MONSTERS’ wasn’t mentioned all the characters are truly scary. Especially the professor! Something I was afraid of when I was a kid was the BFG original movie. Just the giants and mannerisms and the fact that they steal children in their sleep and eat them!

[@ghostbusterdal1]

The hyenas in lion king made me cry in fear as a kid lol. I also ran out of the room when the librarian ghost in Ghostbusters got all creepy

[@peachesncremechanne]

For some reason Droopy the dog always scared the hell out of me. I think it was his lack of emotion and the fact that he was normally the only character that would acknowledge the viewer. Absolutely terrifying. 😂

[@corgiking3607]

the rhino cloud from james and the giant peach! also from jumanji the heart beat of the boardgame and the earth quake

[@stillnotthesupreme6232]

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark were a series of books that terrified me as a kid. I was way too young to have read those books, but my grandmother was slowly introducing me to horror and thought that I could handle them. Spoiler alert: I could not handle them. There was also a specific Goosebumps book, Night of the Living Dummy, gave me a life long fear of dummies that I still have to this day.

[@autumnjostaggs5130]

I wish I had watched you guys when you did this episode! My gpa legit had to fast forward the VHS of sleeping beauty when maleficent turns into the dragon and screams about the powers of hell 😂

[@Lenaray818]

SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK 3&1

[@ManmadeM0nster]

Fuck yeah.... I remember being at a sleepover and listening to the audio version of the stories. Being away from home for the first time on top of hearing the stories scared the shit out of me. That night I jumped at every little shadow.

[@aidan6471]

I grew up with haunted Liverpool I lived in Liverpool

[@the9-2-5outlawgamer]

Even falkor was scary even though he was friendly, and was voiced by Alan Oppenheimer, the voice of skeletor.

[@-4subscriberswithahammerad521]

My childhood fear is that my meme collection will be found by my mom

[@fazbearfoxy1213]

You collect hammers.nice

[@handles4days69]

-4 Subscribers with a hammer addiction everyday you stray further from god son

[@the9-2-5outlawgamer]

Then there is that John Cusack comedy "Better Off Dead" when there's the sequence of the hamburger coming to life in stop motion. Now Spaceballs, Pizza the Hutt and the chestbuster alien that comes out of John Hurt's stomach singing the Michigan J. Frog song "hello my baby hello my honey". Still creeped me out even at age 45.

[@angelicanoel987]

Two things that scared the hell out of me as a child and still give me the creeps, both of which are on KZbin: -Nick at Nite Rewinds, I feel like I never hear anyone mention these!?? I would either run out of the room or close my eyes and cover my ears whenever one of them came on. - The creepy phonecard commercial at the beginning of The Princess and the Goblin VHS tape. Everything about that still scares me, the music, the creepy lady, and the thought of being lost as a child and needing a phonecard to call for help.

[@revengerkilljoy]

The Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde scene from The Page Master. Made me burst into tears as a kid.

[@jjdahling]

YES!!! God, that movie was legit scary and yet I definitely watched it more than once?

[@ashleymoore5538]

The first movie I watched that traumatized me as a kid and has me still deathly afraid of spiders is the movie Arachnaphobia.

[@jefflane6428]

Not gonna lie I was scared of everything

[@4redwingos]

Eh I can see that

[@smiththemyth210]

I've found my long lost twin

[@ourladyofperpetualskepticism]

This video is 4 years old but I feel *vindicated* that someone else was terrified of Gooey Gus as I was. I remember having vicious nightmares where he slimed everyone to the back of doors.

[@nickwheeler5396]

All these years later,, I always come back to this episode for whatever reason. It must be the joy of discussing creepy nostalgia
