Stuff You Were Afraid Of When You Were Little

Just post some stuff that used to scare you when you were a wee little one.
 
I'll start by saying that I used to be terrified of the scene in Winnie The Pooh and Dumbo when they got drunk.

Swimming....I got over it though...

  Don ask me why, it just did!

First time I saw the movie "Ring", I was young and alone at home. Now I hate girls because of that film.

@spiderbat87: I'm going to ask you why the hell you watched that? lol

the shadow creatures.

Mufasa.

Mufasa.

Santa. My obsession with comics hadn't quite developed yet, but I had read enough to know about characters and stuff that didn't have a real form. I saw Santa as that. First he uses the look of a friendly, jolly old man, then when you're close, he grows an extra 12 feet (measurement), fur, fangs, claws, a snake-like tail, horns and quills on his back, then he'd either eat you, or maul you to death.

Lightning storms

the Crypt Keeper from "Tales from the Crypt"

The Krampus. 

Zombies, the dark, mascots, large groups, old 50's movie monsters...yeah...

I'm was afraid of clowns when I was kid. I'm 18 and I still am. I have a panic attack whenever I see one anywhere. Last year I got arrested for punching a clown in the face at a fair, after my friends tried playing a prank on me. They arent my friends anymore. 

Pennywise.

  

  THIS is the reason I never went into my sister's room.

@King Saturn: I was scared of the ant, I'll give you that, but The Noid? That is funny lol.
 
@Mr_riddler: Ever since I watched the Nostalgia Critic review of IT I can never understand why people were ever scared of him.

Clowns

the face of fear  ! 
 

Swimming 
Heights (But it was a selective fear...) 
People with large beards... I'm sure why O_o  

The sound of fabric tearing.

Rag & Bone Man.. 

Gotta love internet trolls lol 
 
@Ms. Omega: ya it isn't for everyone :)

Potatoes, use to haunt my dreams as a child. Yeah, potatoes. The kind you eat. And don't ask me why they scared me, because I don't know. Which might be why they scared me as it was an "unknown". 
 
Later, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" did a real number on my head. Started seeing "seed-pods" everywhere. Constant nightmares. Even had to go to the doctor for treatment. Which, was nothing more than a bottle of Cod Liver Oil. ? ... Go figure. 
 
Lastly, "The Exorcist"! ...but then I got married and found out what TERROR is Really all about!

spiders and clowns...

@Rudyftw: @Ms. Omega: To get over a fear of clowns just have sex with one, it works pretty well.
