When were you last really scared?We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.

Rabbits. Hate 'em.I agree with Rachelswipe -- 'Watership Down' is absolutely fecking terrifying and I am to this day disturbed by cartoon rabbits. No one should see this movie, especially not children.
Almost as frightening was the time my former roomate and I were driving to South Florida and the front left tire of my Honda Accord blew out at 80mph.
There was this loud BANG, then the front of the car hit the road and bounced, tearing off part of my door.
A massive truck had just passed us and I thought for sure we were about to slide into the back of it but I somehow managed to keep control of the car.
I got us across four lanes of traffic and onto the side of the road without further incident but didn't really panic until I actually saw the extent of the damage to the car and realised just how bad it could have been. I was shaking for hours.
Now I drive a Volvo. No more lightweight cars for me!
