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.
When were you last really scared?

Monty Boyce, Monty Boyce, Monty BoyceMy dear, dear fellow.
Far be it for me to disagree, or stray from the topic, but I do feel compelled to reply on this occasion.
I must confess I haven't seen Andrew Lloyd Webber's stage version of "The Woman in White", not being a great one for musicals.
Does it contain a scene where, reaching for the door, the lead in the play suddenly hears an ear-piercing scream, a scream also heard in the theatre and reducing the usual school parties to hysterics, as accurately described by our previous poster?
No? Oh of course not, I remember, that's the Woman in BLACK, a long running play in the Fortune Theatre, London, based on a novel by Susan Hill.
Sorry to be so vulgar as to engage in debate on a public forum, but the idea of being wrong about something even for one moment makes me feel physically sick.
