You remember a show called "Ghost Story" which I think was a series based off a made for TV movie of the same name? Midseason, or in January in the 70's when we had longer seasons, the show changed titles to "Circle of Fear?" I used to really dig those shows as a kid. A lot of cool concepts on there.

I remember seeing an odd puppet act on some tv show where it was a scientist and a robot both full size and one was supposed to be the puppeteer and the other the puppet and the act ended with the robot removing the scientist head exposing the robot as the puppeteer and sincerely scarring the shit out of five year old me.

I remember the made-for-TV horror flick Gargoyles fuckin' my shit up as a kid. I think I was maybe 7 or 8 when I saw it. The bit where the Gargoyle creeps up at the foot of the bed gave me nightmares for -- well, I don't remember the exact range of time, but at least a week.

The Smurfs creeped the hell outta me when I was a kid, not really sure why. I was fine with the Snorks however...go figure.

I also was creeped out by a movie called Deadly Eyes(?), didn't sleep for like three straight nights.

I also remember watching The Thing when I was young and crying when the alien mutilated the dog. I was crying to my Dad saying "Daddy what's happening to the dogs?!?!"

Haha The Hobbit? I won't ask. There was some movie I watched as a kid about these parents who were divorcing and the little boy went to stay with his dad, and the dad told him that he was gonna take him to disney in the morning, but instead he drugged him, poured gasoline on the kid, and lit him on fire. The kid lived but was badly burnt. I was so scared after seeing that. I couldn't sleep bc I thought my dad was gonna set me on fire. Took me to a shrink and everything. LOL. true story.

In elementary school in library class my class was watching the episode about the haunted mask, and my library teacher who wasn't the best looking put on the episode. I shouted that the mask looked like her and I got kicked out of class. Unrelated, but I just had to share lol.

And I love the episode of Are You Afraid Of The Dark about the haunted house with a werewolf in it, the episode was kind of like an anthology like Creepshow.

I never got in to Goosebumps or Are You Afraid of the Dark even though I grew up with those. I mostly watched cartoons or movies, I remember a part in The Hobbit animated movie scaring me.
