Kids get exposed to the internet now and they have to worry about being groomed. Back in 2012, the things you had to worry about was traumatizing yourself and not being able to sleep for a week, getting scammed, groomed, or all three

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

Early internet up until like, 2010 was FULL of grooming. I’m only 26 and a lot of people a little older than me can recall at least once a time when an adult was creepy with them online. Hell, I would argue it’s much safer now. It’s just that we talk about it openly now.

[@mr.bluepants8059]

I honestly feel sad for these children. I mean, not just the outside world, but even the safety of one's home can be compromised. That's why I don't like young children using the internet. It's very scary once you realize what actually goes on in the internet

The "Run the Gauntlet" one is the worst of this all probably, it messed me up a little bit and I'm in my 20s. To eliminate the curiosity so y'all don't look for it I'll just tell you what it is: A lot of it is very gross stuff like maggots in people's skin or a woman eating uh..let's just say a very old buildup of dirtiness on a dudes private parts, or people even cutting off their own private parts. The other half of what it is is just very depressing things because it's actually people dying. The worst one, which I think was also the last level, was a filmed torture/murder of an elderly man by these two teenage boys. So while I know people are probably curious, trust me you don't want to see. Thankfully also these boys got life in prison. Curiosity for shock videos will never go away from the internet and I myself will probably still be curious about certain scary things and end up searching them. However, trust me when I say this particular thing will only make you feel very sad and angry. Be better than me and don't seek these things. I was surprised to see this one in this video because it's not just a creepy kid's show episode or something, it feels like it doesn't fit here 😅. Plus the "I don't care how tough you think you are" may encourage people to get curious about what it is and seek it out... don't. It ruined my day pretty much.

Child's Play caused me such trauma to the extent that it led me to develop an intense fear of semi realistic dolls. I was like 2 when I was watching it with my parents and one of my aunts, I as a child would curse and threaten to kill my parents so my aunt took me to another room at put the movie on before locking the bedroom door where my parents and her would watch the movie. I couldn't move from the couch she set me on and I was petrified, about a year later we moved into an apartment building and in front of that building there was a store (if I remember correctly, it was reallyyyyy big). One day as we were going home I looked at the store's window and I saw a boxed chucky doll, it was around the same size as how chicky was portrayed in the movie and after that I would have constant panic attacks whenever we walked by the store. I remember not seeing it one day and going manic and it got even worse when I saw a family in front of us with one of the dolls. Even know I still can't be around semi realistic dolls but I got over my fear of chucky when I was 14 and watched a couple of movies and enjoyed them. But good lord that fear led me to having constant nightmares of being groped and clawed by chucky up until I was 6.

For anyone looking for context to the "I'm not Tommy/I'm not Stu" thing, it was from an episode of Rugrats called "In the Dreamland" which involves Chucky having dreams and then being unable to distinguish dreams from reality. The Tommy one was from earlier in the episode where Chucky has a dream that ends with The Tommy, and the Stu one is at the end where Chaz finds Stu in his house. He wakes up shortly after. As for "I'm not Patrick", it's obvious from the low quality that it was a fake inspired by the "I'm not Tommy/I'm not Stu" thing.

We would never want to do it because there was a jumpscare at the end. Every time we did it, we got the jumpscare, and we would all scream and be scared out of our minds.

A few of my own additions that literally nobody asked for: Bloody Gir. In retrospect, the story behind this one is actually really funny. At the time though, it really freaked me out watching the show and knowing that he could be hidden in any frame. God knows why that got to me but Dark Harvest didn’t. Talking Angela. Not the game itself, but the urban legend surrounding it. I vividly remember trying to interrogate Angela and get the person behind her to fess up. Chain letters/comments. I was always skeptical of them, and so I never actually shared any with my friends. Regardless, I would get extremely anxious after scrolling past them. I remember being like 10 and not being able to sleep because supposedly a little girl with black eyes was going to show up at midnight and kill me. Several parts of the Harry Potter series. I most vividly remember being afraid of the screaming book in Sorcerer’s Stone, and when Bathilda turned into a snake in Deathly Hallows. Candy Wife in The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Everything about that show was horrifying but I remember HATING Candy Wife. Everything about the 2012 “end of the world” thing. I never fully bought into it but I remember being on edge the whole day it was supposed to happen, and like the week or so leading up to it.

Same here the worst one I ever experienced was late at night and one of them went off for no reason and after like 5 mins I heard a loud boom only to realize it was just a meth lab blowing up

just to say, like most people watching this is all my childhood. however, having trauma isn’t something anyone should want. yes, you can embrace what happened and learn/grow from it. but that is very different from normalising and or romanticising trauma. you should not be grateful or glad of your trauma. if you don’t have any trauma that is a very good thing. trust me, you don’t want it. trauma isn’t a cool thing to have, even though people nowadays are bonding over similar disturbing experiences; but it’s not “trendy”. and you definitely don’t want to get it. and for the people who act like people who aren’t traumatised are inferior - please don’t ever do that. it’s not healthy and you shouldn’t discourage people having good mental/emotional health. if you do this you need some serious help, and i’m saying this out of concern, not malice.

Amazing comment.

[@walrusArmageddon]

Fair enough

[@ktheworm]

Yes! This. I have watched these videos and shpws and was extremly scared by them (still am), but wouldn't call it trauma. I have actual trauma from really baf events and that's completely different

[@stankylad8815]

Stfu, calling something trauma is just an exaggeration, don't take everything so literal.

I’m surprised Coraline wasn’t on here it scared me as a child

[@beastorjett6084]

Bro I watched in kindergarten and I didn't touch a movie for like a year

[@AutisticNightmare]

I wasn’t freaked out by this but my mom was

[@charlottecoffeemoji]

I watched it when I was five, and I thought that it was funny back then. But when I look back at it now, it's terrifying

[@mariahmyers435]

i was bored watching that movie

[@thecrimsonsnoww6548]

Coraline seems to be one of the scariest children's animated movie I have seen, ever. But I do gotta say, it's great.

the most traumatizing thing i saw when i was a kid was doki doki literature club. i became obsessed with it because i loved being scared, and then years later i became obsessed again. (that's now) ddlc will always have a special place in my heart.

OH MY GOD!! I was 12 when I found DDLC and everything from Sayori’s death and after scared me and I couldn’t sleep at all. The only thing from DDLC that scares me until now is when the screen goes red and the music gets muffled and stuff. I am now 16.
